2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)Section A (每小题2分)Format ⅠPassage One1. B【解析】主旨题。

此题解题技巧是:文章以问题开头,往往可从其后紧跟的句子中概括出主旨题的答案。

本文开头的问句有两个,涉及where与who,因此可以排除最大的干扰项C,而更有概括性的选项B为正确答案。

2. B【解析】细节题。

细节题常用的一个出题套路是正确选项不是照抄原文,而是对原文进行同义替换。

本题B选项的leftover food就同义替换了原文第二段中的scraps of food。

3. C【解析】细节题。

此题不难,定位到第三段“She replaced the soft center with spices and nut s”一句,很容易得出正确答案C4. D【解析】词汇语义题。

对词汇量较小的考生来说,代入法是针对这类题目较为实用的解题技巧。

即用四个选项逐项替代原词,看看哪个选项最符合上下文的逻辑。

定位到第三段最后一句,根据常识,用拳头击打炸面圈的中间,很可能中间会被打出一个洞来。

因此,选项D“result(后果)”一词最合题意。

5. B【解析】推断题。

倒数第二段说到,这些“Doughnut Girls(炸面圈女孩)”都在靠近士兵的危险地方工作,这里的“dangerous conditions near the soldiers(靠近士兵危险地方)”玩的是文字游戏,显然指的就是靠近前线战场的地方,因此B为正确选项。

Passage Two6.A【解析】短语语义题。

本文的前两句很容易利用对照关系确定plain是gook look的反义,即长相平凡之意。

而且本文围绕着长相与收入的关系展开,因此,可确定A为正确答案。

7. D【解析】细节题中的数学题。

首先要提醒各位考生,凡是数字题正确答案一般都要经过简单的计算,涉及原文数字的选项则多为陷阱。

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.Passage 1I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to b etter understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier— our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that________.A. the author complains about her parents ‘being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. people divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always right.D. Because the others have done something wrong.63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimaterelationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our partners, we should ________firstly .A. have willingness to do soB. have love for themC. get into connection with themD. care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to________ .A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage 2Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning…is exhaustive and time consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their “always wanted” gi fts back to the store to exchange for something they reallywanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)________.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. Must be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ________ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC.abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that ________.A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping.70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is________ .A. indifferentB. protestingC.objectiveD. supportivePassage 3They already guide blind and disabled people;now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆). The duti es of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s, but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate ver bally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for________.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. communicating with the owner in a non verbal wayD. helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to stay with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will________.A. respond to t he owners’ orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners’ instructionsD. act on the trainers’ order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be________.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage 4It seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too—but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally—to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to$2 billion in 2006—an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year—yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases—they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24year olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally.Piracy—usually in the form of cheaply copied CD—has long been an issue for the music business but the Internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They gave CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs77. The Crimea hope to make money________ .A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the InternetD. through sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because________ .A. people who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. people who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. Overall, sales are up last year.B. Overall, sales are down last year.C. There is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the Internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part Ⅱ Cloze (1×20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

The company says the effort involves using the power of information and technology to help people improve their lives.Aleem Walji works for --the part of the company that gives money to good causes. He said the company’s first project will help identify where infectious(传染性的)diseases are developing. In Southeast Asia and Africa, for example, will work with partners to strengthen early-warning systems and take action against growing health threats.Google. org’s second project will invest in ways t o help small and medium-sized businesses grow. Walji says wants to develop ways to bring investors and business owners together to help small and medium-sized businesses create jobs and improve economic growth. will also give money to help two climate-change programs announced earlier this year.

Denmark voted no in 2000.British Labor party member Chris Bryant, who is chairman of the Labor Movement for Europe, says that more than half of Britain’s trade is with Europe, and he hopes Britain will be joining the euro as soon as possible. British Prime Minister Tony Blair had said previously his government is committed in principle to joining the euro, provided that economic conditions are right.In Sweden, meanwhile, euro opponents have hailed the defeat of the single currency. The leader of the Left Party, Ulla Hoffman said the people have made it clear democracy comes from the bottom, not from above .The Left Party, along with the environmentalist Greens, fought against the euro. But Prime Minister Goran Persson, who led the movement for the euro, said Sweden would have worse opportunities without the common currency in the long term.Euro supporters say that it would have improved trade with the 12-nation zone that uses the euro, and that a no vote would leave Sweden without a voice in EU economic decisions Critics said the euro would mean higher prices and less money for Sweden’s cradle-to-grave welfare system.36.Among the following persons, who is a euro opponent according to the passage?A.

ObjectiveB. IronicC. IndifferentD. Disapproving参考答案:31-35 CDABB 36-40 ABCAAPassage ThreeHuman cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved quake - resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place.In the past, making structures quake - resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s vibrations.When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.A) new computers had been installed in the buildingsB) it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC) large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to makeextensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant building Section BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single linePart IV Translation Section A Directions: Put the following sentences into Chinese. All of them are taken from the passages you have just read.71. Recent studies have shown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space.__________________________________ __________________________________ ___________72.

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful r eality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---andhealthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author compla ins about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. Some peo ple divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift giversalways wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for daysbefore you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)_____.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. must-be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ____for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC. abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America inthat____A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giverB. Wrap the gift carefullyC. Express the appreciation for the gift you receiveD. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70. The author’s attitude towards gift givi ng is_____.A. IndifferentB. protestingC. objectiveD. supportive参考答案:61-65DCCAB 66-70 BDADCPassage ThreeThey already guide blind and disabled people; now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆).The duties of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or walking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into pr actice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “people in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relative normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate verbally but they can still interact.You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for _______.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. Communicating with the owner in a non-verbal wayD. Helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to say with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will_______.。

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)Section A (每小题2分)Format ⅠPassage One1. B【解析】主旨题。

此题解题技巧是:文章以问题开头,往往可从其后紧跟的句子中概括出主旨题的答案。

本文开头的问句有两个,涉及where与who,因此可以排除最大的干扰项C,而更有概括性的选项B为正确答案。

2. B【解析】细节题。

细节题常用的一个出题套路是正确选项不是照抄原文,而是对原文进行同义替换。

本题B选项的leftover food就同义替换了原文第二段中的scraps of food。

3. C【解析】细节题。

此题不难,定位到第三段“She replaced the soft center with spices and nut s”一句,很容易得出正确答案C4. D【解析】词汇语义题。

对词汇量较小的考生来说,代入法是针对这类题目较为实用的解题技巧。

即用四个选项逐项替代原词,看看哪个选项最符合上下文的逻辑。

定位到第三段最后一句,根据常识,用拳头击打炸面圈的中间,很可能中间会被打出一个洞来。

因此,选项D“result(后果)”一词最合题意。

5. B【解析】推断题。

倒数第二段说到,这些“Doughnut Girls(炸面圈女孩)”都在靠近士兵的危险地方工作,这里的“dangerous conditions near the soldiers(靠近士兵危险地方)”玩的是文字游戏,显然指的就是靠近前线战场的地方,因此B为正确选项。

Passage Two6.A【解析】短语语义题。

本文的前两句很容易利用对照关系确定plain是gook look的反义,即长相平凡之意。

而且本文围绕着长相与收入的关系展开,因此,可确定A为正确答案。

7. D【解析】细节题中的数学题。

首先要提醒各位考生,凡是数字题正确答案一般都要经过简单的计算,涉及原文数字的选项则多为陷阱。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B ,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer onthe ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Scout, 18,answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren^t for themissing leg, I wouldn?t have the opportunities I have today!”Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old,she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg wasespecially damaged,and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14,she got a high-tech leg made for sportsand put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my firsttime,’’ she says. “But my doctor said,‘You have to start somewhere. ’ ”Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said,“I’ve beendoing this for a while. Let me give you some tips. ’’ R einertsen,who lost her leg when she was seven, is the firstdisabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon(铁人三项)in Hawaii. She works with an organization tohelp support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager^s life. S he lost that first race, but gained the confidence thatshe needed to compete. If Sarah could do it,she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also findstime to share her story with school groups.“Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even ifyou arenJt physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind —maybe with family,or homework,orfriends. No matter what it is,you can over-come that obstacle,” she says. “Everything you need is inside your heart.Take small steps. As time goes by,the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream.”16. Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She?s scared of changing her current situation.B.She couldn't have them even if she wanted to.C.She has never thought about it before.D.She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere”(Para. 2)?A.She has to do it sooner or later.B.She has to find the right place to start.C.That will be a memorable first time.D.That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experiences____.A.were the cause of her shynessB.were a nightmare until she reached 14C.didn’t stop her from fulfilling herselfD.didn’t have much influence on her later life19. Which of the following statements is true?A.Sarah shared her story with school students.B.Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C.Scout has been inspired by Sarah’s success.D.Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.20. Through Scout’s story,the author wants to tell us that ____ .A.the disabled are mentally stronger than othersB.inner strength can help one overcome difficultiesC.good things will come no matter whatD.everybody has to challenge himselfPassage TwoImpatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuckin traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past.Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that"digital technology, from cellphones to e-mails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from thistechnology have in turn increased our appetite for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives."Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become animmediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When thatdoesn7t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied. “Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people whosend messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as withletter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider suchformalities(客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the timeto proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical andtypographical errors.The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the realm of digital communications. People seem to be losingtheir ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast,driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a trafficlight to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.21. According to the first paragraph,people______ .A. were more patient in the pastB. have been patient for a long timeC. used to be patient while stuck in trafficD. used to be patient while waiting in line22. Nowadays people lose their patience because .______A. their desire for satisfaction has increasedB. they are bored with what they haveC. they have more things to do than beforeD. their life has been changed by technology23. Some believe that e-mail could soon become outdated because_______ .A. it takes a long time to start the computerB. people value formalities between friendsC. people can hardly wait for a responseD. cellphones are more popular nowadays24. The pursuit of instant results causes people to __.A. become more impoliteB. have more errors in their writingsC. use voice messages instead of emailsD. lose many of their abilities in life25. The best title for the passage might be “”A. What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?B. Are We Less Patient Today?C. What Happened to Technology?D. Has Digital Technology Changed Our Lives?Passage ThreeScientists measured the impact that people have on the environment using a term called carbon “footprint. ” Thatfootprint reflects the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted(排放)into the atmosphere as a result of someone’sdaily activities. Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民). Living in a suburb outside a city,however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint.Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zipcode across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. ,lIt is mucheasier to have a low carbon impact if your home is close to where you work, shop and play,” explains Jones. Livingwithin walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars.And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases ofclimate-altering greenhouse gases low.Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped uparound major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs mayoffer better schools for a family?s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where theirowners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances. The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn,an environmentaleconomist at the University of California, who was not involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysisapplied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance.

Thevolunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning,picked up a food package,and delivered it to an elderlyperson. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easilysee how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person weMbeen assigned. She invited us right over.The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. Shetook the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showedus some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea.

I would say to myself .“I _33_ why that woman doesn’t wipe her window. It really looks terrible.”One bright morning I decided to _34_ my flat, including wiping the windows on the inside. Late in the afternoon when I finished the work, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a (an)_35_! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was _36_ visible. Her window was clean.Then it dawned (明白)on me. I have been criticizing (批评)her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my dirty window.That was quite an important lesson for me.

The experts say naps might improve health by reducing pressure.Some European and Latin American companies have supported the idea of napping for many years. They ask people to leave work, go home and have a nap before returning. In the United States, some companies let workers rest simply in their offices. They believe this can help workers make fewer mistakes and also increase the amount of work that a person can do.Sleep experts say it is likely that people make more mistakes at work than at other time. They suggest that people should not carry out important tasks when they feel sleepy. And they believe the best thing to do is to take a nap. About 20 minutes of rest is all you need. Experts say this provides extra energy and can increase your efficiency until the end of the day. Bat they point out that a nap should last no more than 20 to 30 minutes.

Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he hasbecome a bridge that foreigners muse cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese Study Programs have gained large popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually include Chinese art, history and philosophy ( 哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantage of the ancient Chinese wisdomto make up for the drawbacks (缺陷) of Western philosophy. Students in the United States, atthe same time, are racing to learn Chinese. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and more teachers are needed to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.66.

Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.At first glance, there hardly seems to be any comparison between Ravenna and Rome, but back in the 5th century, it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Western Roman Empire. In this city, Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics(镶嵌图案). Seven of Ravenna’s eight buildings from the 5 th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decorated with examples of this ancient art. “ In the past, many people couldn’t read or write, “ says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. “Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation to the people. “Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces. Travel Tips When to Go: June—October: weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups. Where to Stay:Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron. How to Get Around: Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city. Where to Eat or Drink: Housed in a former movie theater, two-storey Ristorante Cinema Alexander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu). For fresh seafood, try Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco. What to Buy: Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporary and traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantine forefathers. What to Read Before You Go: Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis(2010), provides a wide-ranging look at the city’s art, architecture, and history.21.In ancient times, mosaics were used to______.A.display artistic achievementsB.compete with Roman paintingsC.explain religion and politicsD.teach reading and writing正确答案:C22.Lots of school children visit historic sites such as Ravenna in______.A.MayB.JuneC.SeptemberD.October正确答案:A23.If you want to try fresh seafood, you should go to______.A.Emilia RomagnaB.Hotel Centrale ByronC.Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD.Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco正确答案:D24.Why is Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?A.Because it was written by a famous writer.B.Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C.Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D.Because it provides useful information about the city’s weather.正确答案:BWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags(摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he loves you. And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every movement of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness: if his tail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight: and if his tail is tucked(塞)behind his legs, it means he is giving up the fight. Unlike dogs, cats’ tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs himself up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, he lashes out(甩动)his tail. The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats had not become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for their food. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were close to each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance communication, they used their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language too often. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs’.25.What does it mean when a dog’s tail is straight?A.It has a lot to say to you.B.It wants to stop fighting.C.It is going to fight.D.It likes to be patted.正确答案:C26.A cat tries to appear big when it is______.A.facing a dangerB.unhappyC.ready to huntD.hungry正确答案:A27.Which of the following does the author intend to say?A.Dogs and cats are not good friends.B.Dogs are much friendlier than cats.C.Dogs and cats are usually good pets.D.Dogs use tail language more than cats.正确答案:D28.In the last paragraph, the underlined word “predators” refers to______.A.animals that follow and obey other animalsB.animals that kill and eat other animalsC.animals that live in the wildD.animals kept by people正确答案:BLike any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year old, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief:Patrick Ryan, 47 , the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month. Editing One Teen Story—the younger sibling(姊妹篇)of One Story magazine—will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience. “It’s really the only magazine for young adult short fiction, “ he says from his office in New York. “ It’s tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it’s forced upon them in schools. “Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine, it doesn’t carry photographs or advertising. It’s just exactly what it says: one story per issue. Ryan says young people are “looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with. It’s not about having a message or positive spin(说教). It always starts on a character level, and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ‘ Twilight’ characters and the ‘ Harry Potter’characters, they feel very contemporary. “Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. “I would love to make One Teen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business. I just really love the idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody—would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was worth keeping at this. “29.Who is Patrick Ryan?A.He is the editor-in-chief of Granta.B.He is the editor-in-chief of One Story.C.He is the editor-in-chief of “Twilight”.D.He is the editor-in-chief of One Teen Story.正确答案:D30.What is One Teen Story?A.It is a story magazine for teenagers.B.It is a London-based literary journal.C.It is a column of a newspaper.D.It is a magazine of science fiction.正确答案:A31.According to Ryan, what attracts young readers most?A.Photographs and illustration.B.Chances and practices in business.C.Characters and stories close to their life.D.Political teachings and moral messages.正确答案:C32.In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “this business” means______.A.reading storiesB.writing storiesC.editing magazinesD.making money正确答案:BCouples are restricting the size of their families in the UK because of cash worries brought on by the financial crisis and the subsequent decline. We’re now up to nearly 3. 7 million families where there is an only child, a rise from about 3. 3 million in 2005. That means nearly half of all parents have only one child. Financial worries aren’t the only driver. The trend towards later motherhood has been mentioned as a cause, as have soaring costs of raising a child, which have been calculated as £222, 500 from birth to 21 years of age. This is an increase of nearly 40% in 10 years. The increasing availability of IVF(试管婴儿)is also a factor and an interesting one. Couples who might have remained childless in the past now invest in IVF and get pregnant. And because of the cost they stop after one child. It may not be a bad thing: there are outstanding examples of talented only children. Some argue that being an only child promoted their success. These include actors Natalie Portman and Al Paci-no, golfer Tiger Woods and even Queen Victoria. A study from the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex also showedthat the fewer brothers and sisters a child has, the happier they are. It seems fighting for parental attention and affection—which sometimes descends into physical fights —is more stressful than any adult had previously thought. And it’s not compensated(弥补)by having a playmate.33.The smaller size of UK families is mainly related to______.A.financial problemsB.technical problemsC.health problemsD.cultural problems正确答案:A34.The passage shows that IVF is______.A.safer than natural pregnancyB.very popular in UKC.very expensiveD.a risky investment正确答案:C35.What is a proved advantage of one-child family?A.Improved family life.B.Higher number of sports stars.C.Efficient family education.D.Promotion of children’s success.正确答案:D36.The findings of the institute at the University of Essex might mean that______.A.the only children’s lack of playmates causes problemsB.the only children are much happier than othersC.parents-children relationship is off balanceD.children have to struggle for parental love正确答案:BAbout 79 million Americans have pre-diabetes(糖尿病前期). That means they have blood sugar that’s higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed(诊断)with type 2—at least not yet. One long-term study reported by the American Diabetes Association found that 11 % of people with pre-diabetes develop the full-blown disease each year. Another study shows that pre-diabetes will probablybecome type 2 in 10 years or less. Yet, that process is not inevitable. Last year, scientists in Colorado found that people with pre-diabetes who lowered their blood sugar to normal levels—even briefly—were 56% less likely to reach type 2 levels. If you have pre-diabetes, here are four steps to help prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis: Lose 7% of your body weight. That is about 15 pounds for the persons who weigh 200. Dropping that small percentage has been shown to lower the risk of developing type 2 by close to 60%. Exercise 30 minutes five days a week. Whether you do the 30 minutes in one shot or in three 10-minute sessions, the benefit is the same. Choose certain exercises, such as fast walking, playing tennis or lifting weights. Physical activity such as sweeping floors works, too. Turn to your doctor. In some cases, pre-diabetes raises the risk of heart disease and stroke by 50%. Your doctor may use some medicine to control your glucose(葡萄糖)levels and keep your blood pressure in check. Know your numbers. To see if your pre-diabetes is improving, have your blood sugar checked regularly. A fasting blood sugar of 100 to 125 mg/dl suggests pre-diabetes: 126 mg/dl or above is diabetes: and below 100 is normal. Other tests, including glucose tolerance and AIC, also are used to monitor blood sugar.37.What do we learn from the two studies mentioned in Paragraph 1?A.Pre-diabetes will surely become type 2 diabetes.B.Pre-diabetes is likely to become diabetes within years.C.Enough attention should be paid to the treatment of type 2.D.Pre-diabetes is ranked No. 1 danger threatening Americans’ health.正确答案:B38.To prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis, people with pre-diabetes should pay most attention to______.A.glucose levelsB.exercisesC.heart diseaseD.stroke正确答案:A39.Which of the following suggests that you have pre-diabetes?A.70 mg/dl.B.90 mg/dl.C.110 mg/dl.D.130 mg/dl.正确答案:C40.What column of a newspaper is most likely to have this article?A.Technology.B.Entertainment.C.Education.D.Health.正确答案:DPart IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages.

couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly.
Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this reconciliation ( 协调 ) process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of fathers.

It is argued by some writers that the change to the fathers? role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the change the wife must take to the mother?s role. The mother?s role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation. On the other hand, the father?s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household. 1. From the passage, we learn that fatherhood ________.
