2007年“专升本”试卷课程名称:大学英语考试时间:2007年月日姓名:准考证号:Part I Reading Comprehension(每小题2分,共40分) Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Question 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:When a magazine for high-school students asked its readers what life would be like in twenty years, they said: Machines would be run by solar power. Buildings would rotate so they could follow the sun to take maximum advantage of its light and heat. Walls would “radiate light”and “change color with the push of a button.”Food would be repla ced by pills. School would be taught “by electrical impulse while we sleep.”Cars would have radar. Does this sound like the year 2000? Actually, the article was written in 1958 and the question was “What will life be like in 1978?”The future is much too important to simply guess about, the way the high school students did, so experts are regularly asked to predict accurately. By carefully studying the present, skilled businessmen, scientists, and politicians are supposedly able to figure out in advance what will happen. But can they? One expert on cities wrote: Cities of the future would not be crowded, but would have space for farms and fields. People would travel to work in “airbuses”, large all-weather helicopters carrying up to 200 passengers. When a person left the airbus station he could drive a coin-operated car equipped with radar. The radar equipment of cars would make traffic accidents “almost unheard of”. Does that sound familiar? If the expert had been accurate it would, because he was writing in 1957. His subject was “The city of 1982”.If the professionals sometimes sound like high-school students, its probably because future study is still a new field. But economic forecasting, or predicting what the economy will do, has been around for a long time. It should be accurate, and generally it is. But there have been some big mistakes in this field, too. In early 1929, most forecasters saw an excellent future for the stock market. In October of that year, the stock market had its worst losses ever, ruining thousands of investors who had put their faith in financial foreseers.One forecaster knew that predictions about the future would always be subject to significant error. In 1957, H. J. Rand of the Rand Corporation was asked about the year 2000, “On ly one thing is certain,” he answered. “Children born today will have reached the age of 43.”1. High-school students’answers to “What would life be in 1978? ”sound _________.A) accurate B) imaginative C) correct D) OK2. According to the writer, forecasting is fairly accurate in________.A) politics B) science C) sociology D) economy3. Which of the following statements does not confirm with the writers comment on futurestudy?A) Predictions should be accurate.B) Professionals sometimes sound like high-school students.C) There have been some big mistakes in the field of economic forecasting.D) Predictions about future would always be subject to significant errors.4. The present passage was most probably written _______.A) just before 2000 B) in 1958C) after 1982 D) in 19575. H. J. Rand's prediction about the year 2000 shows that________.A) it is easy to figure out in advance what will happenB) it is difficult to figure out in advance what will happenC) only professionals can figure out in advance what will happenD) very few professionals can figure out in advance what will happenPassage TwoQuestion 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Humans have long been studying the flight of birds and trying to imitate it. Not until the twentieth century did engineers fully understand the principles of flight that birds have been using for millions of years.Birds are adapted in their body structure, as no other creatures, to life in the air. Their wings, tails, hollow bones, and internal air sacs(气囊) all contribute to this great faculty. These adaptations make it possible for birds to seek out environments most favorable to their needs at different times of the year. This results in the marvelous phenomenon we know as migration---the regular, seasonal movement of entire populations of birds from one geographic location to another.Each year with great regularity most species of birds return to their summer homes, court(求偶) and choose mates, build their nests, lay eggs, and rear their young. In the late summer and fall they acquire their new plumage(羽毛). Then they join with others of their kind in large and small flocks, feeding and storing up fat in their bodies. Thus they prepare for the hardships of winter ,whether they remain in the cold northlands or make the strenuous journey to the south.6.The best title for this passage would be ______.A. Principles of FlightB. How birds flyC. The Annual Migration of BirdsD. The Body Structure of Birds7.The main idea of this passage is that _______.A. birds are built the same as other creaturesB. birds are built to flyC. birds need to migrate to surviveD. birds need to be told when to migrate8.It can be inferred from the second paragraph that _______.A. birds’ migration is generally without purposeB. birds’ migration is merely out of their habitsC. most birds travel regularly for a change in their lifeD. birds are able to look for situations favorable to their existence9.Birds feed and store fat in their bodies ______.A. for use in rearing their youngB. for use in winterC. to be used when they return next summerD. to be used on their way south10.Which of the following is implied by the passage?A. The migration of birds is a “social” undertaking.B. Each individual bird has its own pattern of migration.C. All birds fly south for the winter.D. Different kinds of birds join together in their migration.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to 20 are based on the following passage:If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington(1876-1947), concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Fall is the nest-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.11. According to the passage, man’s intelligence_____________________.A) stays the same throughout the yearB) varies from day to dayC) changes with seasonsD) changes from year to year12. Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have_________________.A) some effect on most people's intelligenceB) a great effect on everyone's intelligenceC) some effect on a few people's intelligenceD) no effect on most people's intelligence13. Ellsworth Huntington’s conclusion was based on__________________.A) variations of his own mental abilities from season to seasonB) the results of research done by him and other scientists among peoples in differentclimatesC) detailed records of temperature changes in different placesD) detailed records of different ways of thinking among peoples in different climates14. Why does the author say summer is a good time to take a long vacation fromthinking?___________________A) Because a long vacation in summer helps to improve people’s mental power.B) Because summer is a good time for outdoor activities.C) Because mental exertion in the summer heat taxes too much of people’s energy.D) Because people tend to be less creative during summer.15. The central idea of this passage is_________________________.A) man’s mental abilities change from season to seasonB) man’s intelligence varies from place to placeC) man should take a long vacation in summerD) if you want to do creative thinking, go to a cool placePassage FourQuestion 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Most students have little interview experience. The interview should hold little terror. If you are still nervous, help is at hand, your Careers Service will arrange practice interviews andfirms often advertise for mock interviewees and will pay you for the privilege.So you are about to have your first interview with the company of your dreams-how do you make a good impression? First, take care about your personal appearance. Interviewers will realize that you cannot afford expensive, quality clothes but they will not be impressed if your clothes are untidy and your hair is dirty. No one is too poor to afford soap. Second, don't forget the importance of body language. Make sure your entrance is deliberate(从容的) and shake the interviewer s hand firmly, but don't crush it. Maintain eye contact smile and try to relax.Initially, you will probably be asked open-ended questions relating to your application form, interests, courses and so on. This is your cue to begin talking, so don't answer in monosyllables and clam up. Make sure you answer the questions and don't be afraid of stopping to think before speaking. At the end of the interview you will probably be asked if you have any questions. It is advisable to have a list of them prepared, as intelligent queries(疑问) convey interest.Second round interviews can last anything between a few hours and two days spent at a hotel. Here your communication, leadership and social skills will be assessed. You might have to give a presentation chair a meeting and discuss various topics. In addition, companies often ask you to sit tests, some of which examine your mathematical and problem-solving skills, while others test your personal and communication skills.These interviews are intended to give you the opportunity to shine. Try to relax and enjoy it, you will not be at your best if you let your nerves take over. Just remember, if you are not accepted, then you probably would not have enjoyed the work anyway. Just try to make the most of the interviews.16. What kind of role may the students never play in the process of interview?A) Mock interviewee. B) Graduate trainee.C) Question asker. D)Chairman of a meeting.17. By saying “No one is too poor to afford soap”, the au thor probably suggest________.A) that interviewees are rich enough to buy soapB) that it's better to bring with them a beauty soap when being interviewedC) that interviewees should take a bathD) that buying soap is essential in job-bunting interviews18. Usually, the function of interviewer's open-ended questions relating to the applicationform isA) to acquire some personal detailsB) to dispel some doubtsC) to kill the timeD) to encourage the interviewee to talk19. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A) The purpose of the first interview is to gain a good first impressionB) The whole interview process usually consists of two rounds.C) The second round interviews last longer than the first one.D) If your application is refused, it is certain that you are incapable for the post.20. What is implied but not clearly stated in the passage is that________.A) personal appearance and body language help to obtain good impressionB) in the first round you'll be involved in answering as well as asking questionsC) good preparation, confidence and relaxation is vital to the success of job interviewD) the second round is to evaluate your abilities in communication leadership,mathematical and problem-solving as well as personal and social skillsPart II Vocabulary and Structure (每小题1分,共30分) Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

The topic was “Money & God.”The audience’s turnout was excellent. Almost everyone had some deep feelings about money and God —taken separately or united in various holy and unholy alliances. I struggled to bring these two ultimate subjects together in the same breath. One businessman wanted to make it simple. He said, “Money is God. Anything you can say about God, you can also say about money.”“What do you mean?”I responded. “Well, think of the traditional statements about God,”he said. “Okay. God is love. God is everywhere. God is infinite. God is all powerful,” I remarked. “That’ s it]” he said with delight. “Money is love. Money is everywhere. Money is infinite. Money is all powerful. People want to treat you as if they love you when you have lots of money. Everywhere I go there is money —an ATM machine or bank in every part of the world. Money is so powerful that we go to war and give up our lives for it. And, since money is abstract, we can create infinite amounts of it. Therefore Money is like God, Money is God.”This businessman was serious. I could see that he was deeply disturbed by his position. He was admitting an awesome truth that most people would not take seriously. Afterwards an older white-bearded gentleman came up to me and asked this question: “ With what do you buy your money?” I looked at him, just to make sure I understood what he said.Again he asked, “With what do you buy your money?”“I can only think of one good answer,” I said, “I buy my money with my life.”“Right!” he said. “You might win the game of life. I wish I had asked myself this question when I was much younger. I worked for money for so many years, not realizing that I was trading life for money.”“Don’t the bad guys always say, ‘ Your money or your life?’“I said. This old man had the clear eyes of a wisdom seeker, not those of a man lost in the money game. Perhaps, I thought half in jest, he had put away a good sum for his retirement, and was living well off of it. Yet, most older people that I knew were still obsessed with money even if they had enough. They had spent their youth fixated on it; such lifetime habits cannot be easily dropped. Ultimately, all of my investments start with how I use my time. Some say, “Time is money.” I say, “Life is the time we have, so use the time allotted well. You may not have any time to spare.”I may spend so much time working for life and health insurance payments, that I die earlier of stress-related disease. Such is life.26._____(tradition)teaching methods sometimes only succeeded in putting students off learning.正确答案:Traditional27._____(ally)against our common enemy is our only hope for survival.正确答案:Alliance28.The police ______(response)to emergencies in just a few minutes.正确答案:will respond29.The eight major industrial countries will have their ______(year)meeting in London.正确答案:yearly30.The proportion of the population who are over ______(retire)age has grown tremendously in the past few years.正确答案:retired31.Ms. Rice is one of the most______(power)persons in the Bush Administration.正确答案:powerful32.She has created a style of music that has______(delightful)audiences all over the world.正确答案:delighted33.I’m sorry to have ______(disturbance)you so late that night, but I really had no other choice.正确答案:disturbed34.The school has received______(vary)grants from the education department.正确答案:varied/ various35.Criticizing will only destroy a relationship and______(creativity)feelings of failure.正确答案:0createWho’s Afraid of Maths Anyway?(10) Scientists have tried to come up with biological explanations for the difference between boys and girls. However, none were convincing enough to explain the general picture. As one scientist points out, “There are slight genetic differences between the sexes at birth which may influence the subjects boys and girls choose. But the difficulty is thatby the time children reach school age, there are so many other influences that it is almost impossible to tell whether girls are worse at science and maths, or whether they’ ve been brought up to think of these subjects as boys’‘ territory’.”Statistics show that in mathematics, at least, girls are equal to boys. A recent report suggests that girls only stop studying mathematics because of social attitudes. One of the report’ s authors says, “While it is socially unacceptable for people not to be able to read and write, it is still acceptable for women to say that they are ‘ hopeless’ at maths. Our research shows that, although girls get marks which are as good as the boys’, they have not been encouraged to do so.”The explanation for the difference, which is apparent during the teenage years, goes as far back as early childhood experiences. From their first days in nursery school, girls are not encouraged to work on their own or to complete tasks, although boys are. For example, boys and not girls, are often asked to “help”with repair work. This encouragement leads to a way of learning how to solve problems later on in life. Evidence shows that exceptional mathematicians and scientists did not have teachers who supplied answers; they had to find out for themselves. A further report on maths teaching reveals that teachers seem to give more attention to boys than to girls. Most teachers who took part in the study claimed that they expect their male students to do better at mathematics and science subjects than their female students. All of this tends to encourage boys to work harder in these subjects, and gives them confidence and convinces them that they can succeed. Interestingly, both boys and girls tend to regard such “masculine” subjects like mathematics and science as difficult. Yet it has been suggested that girls avoid mathematics courses, not because they are difficult, but for social reasons. Mathematics and science are mainly masculine subjects, and therefore, as girls become teenagers, they are less likely to take them up. Girls do not seem to want to be in open competition with boys. Neither do they want to do better than boys because they are afraid to appear less feminine and so, less attractive.adjust to mean realize instead of be concerned aboutaccidentally on the move be conscious of get used to a variety of36.When can you ______ your weakness and shortcoming?正确答案:be conscious of37.Joe went to visit the kindergarten______interviewing the famous scientist.正确答案:instead of38.It is known to all that the American nation is constantly______.正确答案:on the move39.We should______the scarcity of water on Earth.正确答案:realize40.All that the university students______ is how to find a good job after graduation.正确答案:are concerned about41.Since the environment is changing all the time, we must ourselves______it.正确答案:adjust to42.In the forest, we saw______plants.正确答案:avariety of43.Have you______the fast pace of life in Shanghai?正确答案:got used to44.George didn’ t______to hurt you when he told us your story.正确答案:mean45.He proved to be on the spot______.正确答案:AccidentallyPersonal interviewing is most effective, when all the people to be interviewed are located in a relatively small geographical area. Otherwise, the time and expense spent in traveling from one person to another makes this type of interviewing economically impractical. Personal interviewing is usually used when the information needed is too complex to be gathered by another technique. For example, a problem being studied may require the interviewer to probe beyond the more superficial answers that might be obtained with another method. It is sometimes assumed that personal interviewing is the most accurate of all survey research techniques. Although personal interviewing may be accurate, in many cases, human errors may prevent a researcher from obtaining valid results. Questions perceived by the interviewee as an invasion of privacy or threatening in any way will probably produce false or partially true answers. Also, since the interviewer must interpret the respondent’s statements, a certain amount of information loses results even though the respondent may be answering truthfully. In spite of the problems, at least two major advantages are provided by this research technique. First, the alertinterviewer can generally tell if the respondent is being truthful or if he or she is giving superficial or untrue responses. Second, the interviewer can rephrase questions, give more explanations, or probe more deeply if the initial questions do not produce the information desired. As a result, the information gleaned should be more accurate than that provided by interviews where no one is present to clarify questions or to interpret answers.46.It can be concluded from the passage that when all the people to be interviewed are located in a relatively big geographical area______.A.personal interviewing is most effectiveB.personal interviewing is economically impracticalC.personal interviewing is the only technique to get informationD.telephone interviewing may not be used正确答案:B47.Sometimes a researcher cannot get valid results because______.A.the information needed is too complex to be gatheredB.personal interviewing is the most accurate of all survey research techniques C.personal interviewing is not as effective as other research techniquesD.both interviewer and interviewee may make mistakes during the interview 正确答案:D48.In the second paragraph, the phrase “an invasion of privacy” most probably means______.A.an unpleasant conversationB.a challenge to interviewee’s professional skillsC.an interference with interviewee’s personal affairsD.an interference with interviewee’s hobby正确答案:C49.In the first sentence of the last paragraph, the pronoun “this”refers to a______.A.surveyB.questionC.answeringD.personal interviewing正确答案:D50.According to the last paragraph, one of the advantages of the personalinterviewing is______.A.the interviewer can ask the interviewee questions again in different waysB.the interviewer can ask the interviewee some personal questionsC.the initial questions do not produce the information desiredD.no one 5 s present to clarify questions正确答案:AI am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself that if it weren’t for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried fill the country. But how realistic is the dream? Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of fiats. Children become aggressive and nervous-cooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other. Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to mm to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also tree that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. There is little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves for the country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet. What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peace and quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation and constant noise batters the senses. But one of its main advantages is that You are at the gentler of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at haft-past nine at night. Some people have found(or rather bought)a compromise between the two: they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life”by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind-they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages. What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning”to the locals as they pass by. I’m keen on the idea, but you see there’s my cat, Toby. I’m not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty male down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.51.We get the impression from the first paragraph that the author______.A.used to live in the countryB.used to work in the cityC.works in the cityD.lives in the country正确答案:C52.In the author’s opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT______.A.a strong sense of fearB.lack of communicationC.housing conditionsD.a sense of isolation正确答案:A53.The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following things in the country EXCEPT______.A.daily necessitiesB.fresh fruitsC.designer clothesD.fresh vegetables正确答案:C54.According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes the commuters?A.Original.B.Quiet.C.Proud.D.Insensitive正确答案:D55.Do you think the author will move to the country?A.Yes, he will do so.B.No, he will not do so.C.It is difficult to tell.D.He is in two minds.正确答案:BClozeIn a telephone survey of more than 2000 adults, 21% said they believed the sun revolved(旋转)around the earth.

湖北专升本英语历年作文题目

湖北专升本英语历年作文题目English:As an English major student, I have learned a lot about different literary works, authors, and literary movements. One of the most influential literary works that has left a deep impression on me is George Orwell's "1984." This dystopian novel depicts a totalitarian society where the government controls every aspect of people's lives, from their thoughts to their actions. Through the protagonist Winston's journey of rebellion and self-discovery, Orwell highlights the dangers of totalitarianism and the importance of individual freedom. The novel's portrayal of surveillance, manipulation, and oppression serves as a stark warning against the erosion of personal liberties and the spread of misinformation. In today's increasingly digital age, where data privacy and surveillance are hot topics, "1984" resonates more than ever, reminding us of the fragility of democracy and the need to safeguard our rights and freedoms.中文翻译:作为一名英语专业学生,我学习了很多关于不同文学作品、作家和文学运动的知识。

Each paragraph is numbered. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.Write to Student ServicesDear Student Services,I am writing to express my concern about the living conditions in the university dormitories. I recently moved into the dormitory to be closer to the university campus, but I have been experiencing several issues that have made my living situation less than ideal.First of all, the cleanliness of the dormitory rooms is subpar. When I moved in, I found that the room had not been properly cleaned. The floors were dirty, and there was dust on the furniture. I had to spend time cleaning the room myself before I could unpack my belongings. In addition, the communal bathrooms are often dirty and unkempt, which is not only unsanitary but also unhygienic.Another issue is the lack of privacy in the dormitory. The walls are thin, and I can hear everything that my neighbors are doing. This makes it difficult for me to concentrate on my studiesor get a good night’s sleep. I believe that students should have the right to privacy and a quiet living environment to be able to focus on their academic work.Furthermore, the dormitory facilities are outdated and in need of repair. The heating system is unreliable, and the rooms are either too hot or too cold. The internet connection is slow and unreliable, making it difficult for students to access online resources for their studies. The common areas are also lacking in basic amenities, such as comfortable seating and study spaces.In conclusion, I believe that the university dormitories need to undergo significant improvements to provide students with a comfortable and conducive living environment. I urge Student Services to take action to address these issues and ensure that the living conditions in the dormitories are up to standard.Thank you for your attention to this matter.Yours sincerely,[Your Name]41.

What was the condition of the dormitory room when the author moved in?A) It was clean and well-maintained.B) It was dirty and had not been properly cleaned.C) It was fully furnished with new furniture.D) It was well ventilated and had natural lighting.43. Why does the author find the lack of privacy in the dormitory problematic?A) Because the walls are too thick.B) Because the walls are too thin, and the author can hear everything their neighbors are doing.C) Because the author likes socializing with their neighbors.D) Because the author is a very private person.44. What is one of the issues with the dormitory facilities mentioned in the passage?A) The heating system is unreliable.B) The rooms have too much natural lighting.C) The internet connection is too fast.D) The common areas have too many amenities.45.

Some manufacturers of coffee makers are trying to take advantage of this trend by developing diminutive machines that brew(冲泡)smaller amounts of coffee. Two US appliance companies—Black & Decker, based in Towson, Maryland, and Toastmaster Inc. of Columbia, Missouri—have recently introduced “drip”coffee makers that brew one or two cup servings of coffee. Both of the products brew the coffee directly into a cup or mugs, eliminating the need for a separate carafe. Since many people make a pot of coffee in the morning but drink only a single cup, the new coffee makers should reduce the wasted coffee. Black & Decker’s Cup-at-a-Time costs $ 27, while Toastmaster’s Coffee Break Retails for $ 20. Black & Decker also makes a coffee maker that drips coffee directly into a carry-around thermal carafe. The carafe, a glass vacuum bottle, is supposed to keep the coffee fresh for hours. The product, called the Thermal Carafe Coffee-maker, comes with a built-in lid that opens during the brewing process and closes when it is completed. There are several models, including one that first under the counter, ranging from $ 60 to $ 110 in prices.21.According to the passage, a thermal carafe is necessary when the coffee is( ).A.brewedB.producedC.manufacturedD.preserved正确答案:D22.The advantage of” drip “coffee makers shown in the passage is that( ).A.they are much more economicB.they are more economicalC.they produce only one cup of coffeeD.they are more convenient to operate正确答案:B23.The word “it “in Sentence 3, Paragraph 3 probably refers to( ).A.the brewing processB.the built-in lidC.the coffee makerD.the model正确答案:A24.The main purpose of the passage is to introduce( ).A.a new trend of drinking coffeeB.the new coffee industryC.two US appliance companiesD.some new coffee makers正确答案:D25.Which of the following statements can be inferred from the passage?A.People drink up a pot of coffee in the morning.B.People used to drink coffee in larger quantities.C.Drip coffee makers are applied by everyone.D.The new coffee makers cost less than before.正确答案:BWe have the technology and ingenuity to reduce the threat of global warming today. Solutions that are already available will stimulate the American economy by creating jobs, saving consumers’money, and protecting our national security. By investing in renewable energy and energy efficiency, and increasing the efficiency of the cars we drive, we can take essential steps toward reducing our dependence on oil and other fossil fuels that cause global warming. Using energy more efficiently and moving to renewable energy(wind, solar, geothermal, and bio-energy)would significantly reduce our emissions of heat-trapping gases. The United States currently produces 70 percent of its electricity from fossil fuels such as coal, natural gas, oil, but only two percent from renewable sources. Since the burning of fossil fuels releases large amounts of carbon dioxide—the leading cause of global warming—but renewable energy does not, increasing the share of our electricity generated from renewable resources is one of the most effective ways to reduce global warming emissions. Cars and trucks are another significant source(25 percent)ofU. S. carbon dioxide emissions. A serious effort to address global warming must therefore reduce emissions from cars and trucks. Many technologies already existing can do this, while also creating new jobs in the U.S. automotive sector and other industries throughout the country. In addition, American consumers would save billions ofdollars on gasoline and reduce the dependence on foreign oil.26.Which of the following is NOT an available solution that can reduce the threat of global warming?A.Using energy more efficiently.B.Developing more renewable energies.C.Reducing emissions of heat-trapping gases.D.Increasing our dependence on oil and other fossil fuels.正确答案:D27.Which of the following is NOT a renewable energy?A.Wind.B.Solar.C.Fossil fuels.D.Geothermal.正确答案:C28.According to the passage, why is it suggested that our electricity be generated from renewable resources?A.Because they don’t release carbon dioxide.B.Because they are more effective.C.Because they are renewable.D.Because they are cheaper.正确答案:A29.In the U.S. what vehicles produce 25% of its carbon dioxide emissions?A.Cars and trains.B.Motorcars and buses.C.Cars and trucks.D.Motorbikes and lorries.正确答案:C30.What can we learn from the passage?A.The global warming problem has been solved.B.The prospect of renewable energies is promising.C.Americans will reduce the amount of cars and trucks.D.Half of the electricity in America is generated from renewable resources.正确答案:BPeople often say that the Englishman’s home is his castle. They mean that the home is very important and personal. Most people in Britain live in houses rather than flats, and many people own their homes. This means that they can make them personal, and change them in any way they like. Most houses have a garden, even if it is a small one, and the garden is usually loved. The house and the garden are the private space of a person. In a crowded city a person knows that he or she has a private space which is only for him or her and for invited friends. People usually like to mark their space. If you are on the beach you may have spread your towels around you; on the train you may have put your coat or small bag on the seat beside you; in a library you may spread your books around you. Once I was traveling on a train toLondon, I was in a section for four people and there was a table between us. The man opposite to me had his briefcase on the table. There was no space on my side of the table at all. I was unhappy. I thought he thought that he owned the whole table.I had been reading a book about nonverbal communication so I took various papers out of my bag and put them on his case! When I did this he suddenly became angry and his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I had taken up his space! A few minutes later I took my papers off in order to read them. He immediately moved his case to his side of the table.31.What does the first sentence in Paragraph I mean?A.The home matters greatly to Englishmen.B.The home is more important than the castle.C.The castle is more important than the home.D.Englishmen usually live in home instead of a castle.正确答案:A32.Which of the following is NOT the reason for most British to live in houses?A.They love their houses more than their gardens.B.They can make changes in the houses where they live.C.They can own private space like the house and the garden.D.They can keep the private space to themselves and friends.正确答案:A33.According to Para. 2, if you spread your books around you in the library, it means( ).A.you like to spread your books around youB.you can read one of them easily on the tableC.you find no space for your books on the seatD.you want to tell others the space belongs to you正确答案:D34.How did the man opposite to the writer show he owned the whole table?A.He sat in a section for four people.B.He placed his briefcase on the table.C.He was traveling on a train toLondon.D.He was reading a book on communication.正确答案:B35.The writer tried to get back his space by( ).A.moving the case off the tableB.reading papers on the briefcaseC.putting papers on the man’s caseD.showing the books concerned to the man正确答案:CA dinner party is often a pleasurable time for everyone but the host, so the important point to keep in mind is that “ planning” is a key part of a successful dinner party. All too often, people make the mistake of over-exerting themselves, leaving little time to enjoy the evening themselves. The following information can help you make it an enjoyable night for both yourself and your guests. Firstly, make a guest list so you’ll know how many people to cook for. Let your guests know the time and date of the dinner well in advance and be sure to remind them shortly before the party. Make a checklist of ingredients and drinks that you’ll need and try to buy them a couple of days before the party. Get the house in order the day before the dinner party. If you leave your house cleaned till on the day, you might find yourself more stressed than you need to be. Keeping the menu simple doesn’t mean it has to be boring. The night will also be a lot easier for you if you prepare dishes that can be laid out at the centre of the table, allowing guests to serve themselves. You can provide some music and the type of music will depend on the type of guests. You might not think of it, but the night will run a lot smoother with background music for the evening.36.What can be inferred from the first two paragraphs?A.A good “planning” means over-exerting the host.B.Usually both the host and the guests enjoy themselves at the party.C.It’s important for hosts to leave themselves some time to enjoy the dinner party.D.The host should make a fuller preparation in order to have more time to enjoy the party.正确答案:C37.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in planning a diner party?A.List the ingredients and drinks for the party and buy them before the party.B.Inform your guests of the time and date beforehand.C.Prepare some proper music for the party.D.Practice cooking according to menu.正确答案:D38.Get your house in order the day before the dinner party so that( ).A.you may find yourself less stressed than you need to beB.you won’t get up so early on the party dayC.you will have little time to enjoy the partyD.your guests will be much happier正确答案:A39.Which statement is NOT true according to the information given in the passage?A.Making lists helps.B.A simple menu must be boring as well.C.Music can make the party go smoother.D.Allowing guests to help themselves makes things easier.正确答案:B40.What’s the third paragraph mainly about?A.How to entertain your guests.B.How to save time for a dinner party.C.How to plan a party.D.How to enjoy yourself at a party.正确答案:CClozeWhat will man be like in the future—in 5,000 or 50,000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from 【C1】______he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time. Let us【C2】______an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years【C3】______, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively a short period of time, so we are sure that man will continue togrow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 10% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, 【C4】______, we shall have to use our brains more and more—and【C5】______we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a【C6】______change to the head; in particular the forehead will grow larger. On the other hand, we【C7】______to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more【C8】______, because they are used a great deal in modern life. But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether because it does not serve a useful purpose【C9】______In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald. Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature【C10】______! This may well be true.41.【C1】A.thatB.whatC.whichD.who正确答案:B42.【C2】A.takingB.to takeC.takeD.took正确答案:C43.【C3】A.agoB.beforeC.earlyD.previously正确答案:A44.【C4】A.moreoverB.howeverC.furthermoreD.besides正确答案:B45.【C5】A.generally B.essentially C.particularly D.eventually正确答案:D46.【C6】A.physical B.moral C.mental D.chemical 正确答案:A47.【C7】A.assure B.ensure C.tend D.lead正确答案:C48.【C8】A.sensible B.positive C.sensitive D.rational正确答案:C49.【C9】A.no longer B.any longer C.no more D.ever more 正确答案:B50.【C10】A.looking atB.being looked C.to look D.to look at正确答案:D。

The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras(交响乐团). It became a fixed event every August and now attracts400,000 people yearly.At the same time, the Fringe appeared as a challenge to the official festival. Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.Today the Fringe, once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing, some said it was getting too big.A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself. In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries. More than 1.25 million tickets were soldWhy Edinburgh Festival was held in 1947()A.To attract theatre groups in EuropeB.To bring Europe together againC.To introduce symphony orchestrasD.To honor the Second World War35.The word frailer in Paragraph 5 probably means ________()A.lonelierB.weakerC.smarterD.better36.Passage 2Most airlines allow passengers to book an airline flight online. Travel sites such as Yahoo and Google, all offer search engines and online booking for an airline flight. The first thing a traveler should do when booking online is to shop around. There are numerous websites offering this service, and some may have cheaper fares than others.A traveler also needs to check fares for the desired flight times. Fares can change, depending on when the airline flight departs, how many stops are involved, and at what airport. The traveler needs to make sure he is comparing fares so as to get the best deal.When booking online, the traveler also needs to check the travel site's policies and fees. Most travel sites charge a small booking fee and have other restrictions about canceling flights, and other types of refunds. Many travelers think about looking on a travel search engine first for the best airline flight fares. However, the individual airline website may offer the best deal, since they often have Internet only deals booked through their own sites.A traveler should always have a credit card available when he or she purchases the ticket, and should make the reservation in the name appearing on the card. The traveler will then be issued an e-ticket for the airline flight, rather than the traditional paper ticket. When he receives flight confirmation, usually through e-mail, he should print out the reservation e-mail and save it with his travel documentsWhen booking an airline flight online, the traveler should first()A.visit Google and book a flight immediatelyB.visit Yahoo and book a flight instantlyC.make a choice between Yahoo and GoogleD.search and compare options before booking37.In what way is the market very real for each person or businessman who is making and selling something()A.It tells you what to produceB.It directs you how to grow tomatoesC.It provides you with everything you needD.It helps you save money38.Before beginning a telecommuting arrangement, the management should ()A.appoint a new HR specialistB.provide the facilities and conditionsC.improve the company’s productivity firstD.decide whether it is suitable for the company六、作文(1题)39.1.目前,越来越多的大学生做兼职。

湖北经济学院2008年英语专业的经验分享

湖北经济学院2008年英语专业的经验分享

湖北经济学院2008年英语专业的经验分享很久没来这个论坛,去年此时准备专升本考试的我几乎每天都会上这个论坛,在这里获得了不少信息,考上湖北经济学院后,我在心里许诺09年要来论坛和大家分享一下经验,因为我深深知道,大家这时焦急,迷茫的心情。

前两天有湖经专科的学生不知从哪里打听来我们上届英语专业专升本学生的寝室,问到了我们寝室,她们的心情可以理解,因为不太方便,对那几个学生的问题没有很细致的解答,现在在这里和所有准备考湖北经济学院尤其是英语专业的学生介绍一下。

也希望那天来问我们的几个女生可以看到。

很多人都很关心考试的题型和用书,我看了一下,今年商务英语这门考试的用书和去年不一样,我们去年的大纲是华夏出版社的书,但我很想告诉大家,用什么书真的不重要,因为我们去年考上的大多同学都没有很细致的看过那本书,而且考试的题型大致上就是bec中级的题型,但比中级简单很多很多,(根本不是一个层次的难度)而且没有听力,作文两篇,一篇大作文一篇小作文,作文具体题目不记得了,建议大家把商务英语书信的格式和相关内容看一看,我们去年写的一篇好像涉及到了和对方还价之类的。

所以商务英语这一门一定要熟悉bec中级的题型。

至于大学英语这么书就更用不着了,我们去年考的和书上没有任何关系,题目也就是单选,阅读,完形,作文,难度比大学英语普通四级还简单,但值得注意的是简单,往往都得不了高分,而且英语专业这门必须有65分,所以大家在做题时还是要细致,觉得简单也不要提前交卷。

如果有人看过去年的帖子,会发现很多人在成绩出来后抱怨湖经有人总分很高但英语没过线还是没有录取,的确,我也听说很多专业总分排在前几但大学英语不过线最终没录取,不要抱怨学校黑,这反而是学校公平的地方,没达标就不录取,且不谈这样的标准是不是最好的,但既然标准已经定了,而且大家都是在知道要求后才报的学校,就应该朝这个方向努力,不要过多抱怨。

最后,谈一下专升本黑不黑的话题,我在专科时也听过很多很多这样的说法,也许黑暗的地方会有,但极少极少,尤其这两年,不要用这个理由当自己的借口,而且现在也不存在本校就有优惠,我就是从别的学校考到湖经的,我们班的大多数同学也是外校考进来的,我原来专科时的同学有人想找关系上专升本的但都没有成功。

Practical Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice andmake the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Passage 1During the last two years, I’ve had a handful of clients who have shown up looking for some coaching who you and I would consider incredibly successful. They seem to have it all --- the money, the position, the prestige and the power.Take John for example. He spent more than 15 years building an amazing business. For years, he worked day and night to build his team, drive profitability and master his craft. John is the type of business owner who is always taking new training so he can be an innovator in his field. He reads all the right books, does all the right things and he puts all the great ideas into action. If you were going to build an extremely profitable service business, you’d definitely want to copy what he’s done.But when John showed up in my life, he wasn’t very happy. On the one hand, he knew he had to change. On the other hand, he didn’t want to give up all that he had built. He had everything he wanted and still wasn’t satisfied. That’s because our society is addicted to fame and fortune. You believe that having money and prestige will make you happy. You become obsessed with the 30-year-old entrepreneurs who are making a killing (大走财运) in Silicon Valley. You watch rags to riches stories and wonder why you’re not making more money so you too can travel the world on a yacht. You then give up your life to work one more hour to become even more successful.What John was really seeking is what I call “Beyond Success.” He had all the success in the world---defined by what society believes success is in terms of money, prestige and power. But his life needed something else. It doesn’t mean I tell my clients to give their money away and rush to the woods to live a simple life. What it does mean is I coach them to redesign their lives to feel passionate and fulfilled again. What may surprise you is most of them stay in the same career, while they just learn to live a new way.Some find meaning in spiritual endeavors (努力). Others find meaning in the family and friends they lost touch with on their way to success. Many clients find the answers they want by turning their attention away from themselves and into other people. The solution is different for every client, but they all learn to release themselves from believing that fame and fortune equal happiness.It’s time for you to give up your addiction to fame and fortune. Having money or being famous will not make you happy. Once the initial excitement goes away, you’ll still be left looking at yoursel f in the mirror and wondering, “Is this all there is?”1.What do you know about John from the passage?A. He is a workaholic.B. He is a coach in his field.C.He is a very successful businessman.D. He is the copyist of someone else who is very successful.2.By saying “he didn’t want to give up all that he had built” in the Paragraph 3, Johndidn’t want to loseA.his fortune.B.his fame.C.his power.D.all of the above.3.What the author called “beyond success” (Paragraph 4) refers toA.much more money.B.the meaning behind money.C.leading a simple life just like a hermit.D.greater achievements than he has at the present.4.How does the author teach the patients to redesign their lives?A.Choose another new job or career.B.Focus more attention on the patients themselves.C.Spend more time with families and friends.D.Seek for something else more than fame and fortune that can bring ushappiness.5.According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A.John is not happy and satisfied because he hasn’t got everything he needs forhis life.B.Everyone dreams of becoming famous because the society is addicted to fameand fortune.C.There are many different ways to fulfill the life with happiness.D.After the excitement when you success, you will feel lost and confused aboutwhere to go.Passage 2Everyone struggles with sadness, disillusionment (幻灭), and addictions. The public struggles of famous people may make them less happy than normal people. Models, musicians and star athletes, especially the movie stars may actually be proneto more unhappiness and even despair than regular people. For instance, Kate Moss was addicted to cocaine. Marilyn Monroe, blonde movie star, was severely depressed before she committed suicide. These examples make movie star happiness seem hard to achieve and we have found the explanations from the following perspectives.First of all, movie stars have no secrets. The public struggles of famous people include breakups, disappointments, and weaknesses. They are available for everyone to see, discuss and mock. People love reading about the gossip of the rich and famous; the more embarrassing, the better.Secondly, movie stars’ sense of self could become lost. Famous people may lose touch with who they really are and what they really think and like. The media and fans have their own ideas about who a movie star is, which makes it difficult for the celebrity to remain grounded in his or her own self. And, sharing your opinions on national TV could make you vulnerable to a massive attack. That is why the public struggle of movie stars to determine a sense of self can make their happiness shaky.Besides the above-mentioned reasons, another one is that it’s lonely at the top. Movie star happiness may be affected by the whole experience of reaching the pinnacle (顶点,顶峰) of success and realizing it’s not as fulfilling as you think. It’s like getting your first book published, or earning your first degree, or being on TV for the first time. At first it’s exhilarating (使人兴奋的), but then you eventually wonder, “Is this it? What else is there?”Since movie star happiness is greatly influenced by the public, still there are numerous people who want to be famous. Fame no doubt has its benefits, but it could be a stressful existence. Movie star happiness is definitely not a guarantee. However, one person’s garbage is another’s treasure. If movie stars genuinely love entertaining, they may find the stress easier to take.6.From the first paragraph, we know, comparing with the normal people, that themovie stars areA.happier.B.richer.C.sadder.D.more depressed.7.By saying “they are available for everyone to see”, the author means thatA.Everyone’s happiness and despair is public.B.Everyone could go to see the movie stars anytime.C.The movies of these stars are available for everyone.D.Movie stars don’t have their own privacy which they deserve.8.As for the second reason, what does “remain grounded” (Paragraph 3) mean?A.Staying on the ground.B.Having the sense of oneself.C.Being hurt at a massive attack.D.Perceiving some celebrity oneself inaccurately.9.According to the passage, which one of the following events would give youdifferent feeling?A.Reaching the pinnacle of the mountain.B.Earning your first degree from the university.C.Going through the troubles and difficulties.D.Being on TV for the first time.10.Which one of the following sentences has the similar meaning with “one person’sgarbage is another’s treasure”?A.One person’s stress is another’s oxygen.B.One person’s fame is another’s fortune.C.One person’s car is another’s bike.D.One person’s book is another’s pen.Key to Section III Practical Reading ComprehensionPassage 11.

Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward for children for some time. For other 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 re-socialization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father. It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make 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.26.According to the author, being a father______.A.brings a feeling of excitement to some menB.has a different meaning for those who have daughtersC.makes some men feel proud and others uneasyD.means nothing but responsibilities正确答案:C27.It is stated in the passage that______.A.some parents are not prepared to have a childB.young couples do not like children at allC.working couples do not have much time to take care of their childrenD.many couples look forward to having a boy as their first child正确答案:A28.In the third paragraph, the author______.A.gives expression to his discontent with fathers for not taking enough responsibility in bringing up their childrenB.excuses the American writers for taking no notice of the difficulties of being a fatherC.supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the family D.expresses dissatisfaction with the lack of social programs to help husbands to be good fathers.正确答案:A29.The transition to the mother’s role requires that the wife______.A.change her life style in a highly innovative wayB.make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation C.stay at home to take care of the babyD.help her husband in his re-socialization process正确答案:B30.Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, ______.A.have to shoulder more burdensB.have to make more difficult adaptationsC.have an easier job to doD.can usually do a better job正确答案:CPeople, in different parts of the world have very different ideas about what is good to eat. Even when people in different countries eat the same food, they often prepare it very differently. If you were inGermany, you would find soup that is thick and heavy. If you were in China, you would find soup that is thin and clear. On holidays most of us eat special foods. Year after year, even if many other things change, the food is always the same. Sometimes housewives begin weeks in advance to prepare the special foods that are traditionally served on certain holidays. People in different parts of the world also have different ideas about what is good to drink. Among the most popular hot drinks are coffee and tea. Coffee is very popular in northern Europe and in theMiddle East. Some people put cream and sugar in their coffee. But in the United States, many people drink their coffee “black” that is withoutcream or sugar. Tea is the national drink in China, Japan, and other Oriental(东方的)countries. In the Orient, people drink tea without sugar. But in England where it is also a national drink, many people use both sugar and hot or cold milk in their tea.31.People in different parts of the world( ).A.cook the same food in different waysB.like the same kinds of foodC.have the same ideas about foodsD.know how to prepare the same food正确答案:A32.Special foods on holidays will( ).A.change a lot year after yearB.have different tastes with the years passing byC.remain the same for many yearsD.be served before certain holidays正确答案:C33.When drinking coffee, many Americans like to( ).A.add tea to itB.add milk to itC.drink it with or sugar addedD.drink it with nothing added正确答案:D34.In England,( )is a popular national drink.A.cold milkB.teaC.hot milkD.black coffee正确答案:B35.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.We Should Eat Different FoodsB.Special Foods on Certain HolidaysC.People in Western Countries Like Coffee MostD.Different Ideas about Foods and Drinks正确答案:DThere are many ways to learn about people of other lands. One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different parts of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big reasons for this. One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils(面纱)to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man-made materials. Most people inChina wear cotton. The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone living in India can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs. World-wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim(帽檐)up. InChina, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from the sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.36.If you want to learn about the differences about people in the world, you( ).A.should know the ways to study other landsB.should know the four big reasons given in the passageC.may study the different types of clothing people wearD.may be surprised by the ways people wear hats正确答案:C37.In many Moslem countries, women have to( )in public.A.wear more clothes than menB.wear veils to hide their facesC.protect their faces from being hurtD.wear beautiful clothing正确答案:B38.Which of the following is the reason for the differences in clothing?A.Materials used for clothes differ from country to country.B.Cotton is the common material for clothing.C.Man-made materials are invented to make clothes.D.Most people like silk clothes.正确答案:A39.The third reason for different in clothing is( ).A.different materialsB.different ways of making clothesC.different styles of dressingD.different religions正确答案:B40.The two examples of wearing hats are given in the last paragraph to show( ).A.the effect of customs on dressing styleB.the function of wearing straw hatC.the correct way of wearing straw hatD.the long history of some customs正确答案:DClozeTwenty years ago, kids in school never heard of the Internet.

Section III Practical Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice andmake the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the center.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Maturing as a mom means being able to tolerate a certain inevitable amount of risk. The amount you can handle depends to some extent on your genetic makeup; in fact, scientists have recently discovered a “worry” gene that makes people susceptible to anxiety, pessimism, and negative thinking. The gene in question is the human serotonin(含于血液的复合胺) transporter, and researchers say that those who have a shortened version of it receive less serotonin, a brain chemical that regulates mood.But why lay all the blame for our skittish selves on nature when we can blame nurture -- in other words, our parents? Our worry thermostat (调节器) is often set by how they reacted to life’s problems. Martha Outlaw, mom of two young daughters, says she can trace her disquiet to her early years. “Because of their own childhood experiences, my mom and dad carried around a constant dread that our family’s fortunes could suddenly change for the worse,” she says. Such a strong influence from childhood can create a deep-seated state of worry that’s hard to shake off.A friend of mine, who’s fairly laid-back otherwise, is afraid of the dark, and now that she has a young daughter, it’s grown worse -- to the point where she can’t stay in the house when her husband travels. She tracks this anxiety back to her father, who was an alcoholic and used to wake up his kids at night when he came home after a bender. “My demons come out at night,”she says. “I can’t stop worrying that someone will break into my house and take my daughter. How would I protect her? For me, the late hours have always been a chaotic time when I don’t feel safe.”Your maternal worry threshold may also be influenced by other factors, such as your age when your kids were born. Janyce Dudney, mom of four from Tennessee, started having kids at 23. “I was so young I didn’t know all the things I should be afraid of,” she says. As we get older, we become more apprehensive about risks and start to lose any feelings of invincibility(无敌).Birth order may also play a role in how high you’re strung. Parents tend to hover over first-borns, often implanting unnecessary fear and caution. Later-born kids have buffers(缓冲) between them and their moms and dads.Given the influence of our own parents and childhood experiences, it’s imperative to try to prevent passing on the worry bug to our kids. This means: Try not to let them see you anxiety (or at least, over-anxiety). Protecting your child from adult concerns gives him a chance to build up hope, optimism, and resiliency. Obsessive worrying is particularly damaging.(Words: 453)From: 1. The phrase “susceptible to” (in line 3, Para 1) most probably means .A. suspicious ofB. resistant toC. easily attacked byD. easily tolerant to2. Why does the mother often worry that her daughter will be taken away at night?A. She always has the illusion that ghosts come out at night.B. It is so dark that she is frightened and lonely when her husband is on business.C. Someone will break into at night when she stays at home alone.D. She has the deep-seated state of worry caused by her alcoholic father.3. According to this passage, the following factors contribute to a mom’s worry EXCEPT that .A. her husband is always on business and has no time to educate childrenB. her parents used to have a dread that their family fortunes would deteriorateC. she is the first child of her parentsD. she is mature enough to be aware of all the risks4. We can infer form this passage that a child is likely to be optimistic and resilient if .A. he is brought up in a wealthy familyB. his parents can spare more time to accompany himC. his parents try to avoid expressing their adult concerns to himD. his parents give birth to him when they are mature enough5. Which is the most appropriate title?A. Adult ConcernsB. Why Moms WorryC. Worry GenesD. Parents’ Influence on ChildrenPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Environmental activists, religious organizations, public interest groups, professional associations and other scientists and government officials have all raised concerns about GM (genetically modified) foods, and criticized agribusiness for pursuing profit without concern for potential hazards, and the government for failing to exercise adequate regulatory oversight. It seems that everyone has a strong opinion about GM foods. Most concerns about GM foods fall into three categories: environmental hazards, human health risks, and economic concerns.Several environmental hazards have been discussed. Firstly, they do unintended harm to other organisms. Last year a laboratory study was published in Nature showing that pollen (花粉) from B.t. corn caused high death rates in monarch butterfly caterpillars. Secondly, they reduce the effectiveness of pesticides. Just as some populations of mosquitoes developed resistance to the now-banned pesticide DDT, many people are concerned that insects will become resistant to B.t. or other crops that have been genetically-modified to produce their own pesticides. Another concern is that crop plants engineered for herbicide tolerance and weeds will cross-breed, resulting in the “super weeds”.Human health risks have attracted much attention. Many children in the US and Europe have developed life-threatening allergies (敏感症) to peanuts and other foods. There is a possibility that introducing a gene into a plant may create a new allergen or cause an allergic reaction in susceptible individuals. Besides, there is a growing concern that introducing foreign genes into food plants may have an unexpected and negative impact on human health. A recent article published in Lancet examined the effects of GM potatoes on the digestive system in rats. This study claimed that there were obvious differences in the rats fed GM potatoes and rats fed unmodified potatoes. But on the whole, with the exception of possible allergenicity (变应原性), scientists believe that GM foods do not present a risk to human health.Some people think bringing a GM food to market is a lengthy and costly process, and of course agri-biotech companies wish to ensure a profitable return on their investment. Many new plant genetic engineering technologies and GM plants have been patented (申请专利). Yet consumer advocates are worried that patenting these new plant varieties will raise the price of seeds so high that small farmers and third world countries will not be able to afford seeds for GM crops, thus widening the gap between the wealthy and the poor. It is hoped that in a humanitarian gesture, more companies and non-profits will offer their products at reduced cost to impoverished nations.(Words: 426)From: 6. According to the first paragraph, the government is criticized because .A. it supports the agribusiness to pursue profitB. it hasn’t realized the potential risks GM foods may have on ecological balanceC. it is not efficient on supervision and administrationD. some government officials ignore people’s concerns about GM food7. The “super weeds” (in Para 2) most probably refer to the weeds that are .A. too strong to cut downB. resistant to herbicideC. stronger than crop plantsD. powerful, growing fast8. According to the author, GM foods people’s health.A. undoubtedly do harm toB. are likely to have bad effect onC. possibly do good toD. have definite influence on9. The author suggests that the impoverished countries should solve their food problem by .A. their independent research on the seeds for GM cropsB. importing the seeds for GM crops from developed countriesC. accepting humanitarian food from the wealthy countriesD. buying the seeds provided by noncommercial organizations at lower price10. According to the passage, GM foods may lead to the following consequences EXCEPT that .A. the grain products may dramatically increaseB. other species and even the ecological system may be affectedC. new and unexpected diseases may come into beingD. the gap between the rich and the poor may be widened among various regions Key to Unit 7 Section III Practical Reading Comprehension1.
