Passage 1 Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage: Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will notlikely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. “What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,” said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. (76) The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。

2016年5月北京地区成人英语三级考试真题(总分100, 做题时间120分钟)Part Ⅰ Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a larger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Gover-nor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will become the second state, after Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other tobacco products. More than 100 cities in the U. S., inclu-ding New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.A week ago, the Caiifomia Assembly approved the measure, which--in addition to raising the age limit--treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products, expands smoke-free areas, in-creases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes oncigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly' s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased the age to buy tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying (游说)from tobacco interests. The meas-ure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in po-licing people' s personal choices. "I don' t smoke. I don' t encourage my children to," said Re-publican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. "But they' re adults, and it' s our job to treat our citizens as adults. "But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legally purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. " This will save the medical system millions of dollars," said Democratic Assemblyman Jim Wood. ( 76 ) "It will save thousands of lives. " A 2015 study by the Institute of Medicine "found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nation-wide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today' s teens reached adulthood. In addi-tion, there would be 223,000 fewer premature ( 过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer.

When she was grow-ing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.No one knows Dr. Barry' s real name, her birth date, of her family' s background. Some re-cords show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at the University of Edinburgh.James Barry' s classmates made fun of her because she didn' t have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At the age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later,she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the ar-my physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr. James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Every-one admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. ( 78 ) At that time, Eng-land had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was sooL known as the best doctor and surgeon in the colony. She saved the life of the governor' s daughter, and later she became the governor' s personal doctor. People admired Dr. Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker. If people talked about her high voice or tiny figure, she became very angry. She was an excellent swordsman, and she started fights often.第6题 According to the passage, Dr. Barry was made fun of becauseshe__________.a low voice a funny beard tall shol答案:D第7题 Which of the following about James Barry is a fact?had a rich father. became a medical student in 1810. was born in Edinburgh. was a royal princess.答案:B第8题 Which of the following about James Barry is NOT TRUE?was a troublemaker. worked in many foreign countries. made great contributions to the British Army. was the best doctor in London.答案:D第9题 Dr. Barry was not happy when people talked about her__________.答案:D第10题 The word swordsman in Paragraph 4 probably means__________.who is skilled at fighting with a sword who is skilled at fighting with a gun who often fights with other people who often makes trouble for other people 答案:AChokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes( 路面坑洼). The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. "I decided I was going to do something about the pothole prob-lem in my city," Chokwe says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks. "When the app detects a potheole, it is highlighted(突出显示) in red," Chokwe says. "And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you. " Drivers can also use the app to report any pot-holes" they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on Current available information about the streets of Jackson. "It works by u-sing the city' s 311 call system, so it uses information already stored in a database," Chokwe says.(79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems--whiCh in-clude potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jack-son would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype(原型).(80) Although the app isn' t yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to im-prove it. The prototype remains limited'to 10 streets in Jackson, but he hopes to add more, so that it includes every street in the city. And then he wants to go even farther. "I want to keep working on the app until it' s nationwide," Chokwe says.第11题 Which of the following is the best title for the passage?Solution to Traffic Jams App to Detect Potholes Problems in Big Cities Road Conditions答案:B第12题 The phrase kick off in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to__________.答案:C第13题 People use the 311 call system to report__________.attacks abuse答案:C第14题 The prototype focuses on __________ streets in Jackson.答案:A第15题 According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?developed the app all by himself. can buy this app from the online store. mother' s car was once damaged over a pothole. app works by using the city's 911 call system.答案:CVocabulary and Structure Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.

Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的) route, can be deadly for birds.“We live in an age of glass,”said Ms. Laurel,an architect. (76) “It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.”About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into buildings in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat (栖息地) loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.(77) As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too have calls to makethem less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standards for new buildings in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this fall as part of its environmental certification process.There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet (紫外线的) signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and nets are the main options available.Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. "You don't necessarily have to treat every window," Ms. Laurel said. "It would be too expensive to do the whole building." The Jacob IC Javits Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns.1. What is the main idea of the passage?A. New York is a city of glass towers.B. Glass towers are dangerous for migrating birds.C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings.D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States.2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds?A. Climate change.B. Habitat loss.C. Lack of food.D. Crashing into buildings.3. What does the word“fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Choices.B. Explanations.C. Solutions.D. Developments.4. are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.A. Dot patternsB. ShadesC. NetsD. Covers5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes.B. The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of birdcrashes.C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year.D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F. D. R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations (革新) are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was at Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital (数字的), they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to fred kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship (企业家才能) education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation, which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses, noted that more than 5,000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two- and four-year campuses-up fromjust 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell, a Kauffman vice president, says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence, which used to be found only inbusiness schools. Now, the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical schools, and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is inall the programs,”she says.“We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own_, students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas, writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and, often, market. In their spare time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses for bean; industrial design majors at Syracuse, in a special laboratory, create wearable technologies.(78) The entrepreneurship movement has its critics' especially among those who see college asa time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don't think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national: need,”says Daniel S. Greenberg, author of Science for Sale: The Perils, Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A. Schlesinger, Babson College's president, says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is“an age-old argument.”6. When Google and Facebook were established, the founders were still__________.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage, what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education?A. To prepare students for future academic life.B. To prepare students to fred oppommities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare students to develop interpersonal skills.8. Theword“prototype”in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean __________A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S. Greenberg think of entrepreneurship education?A. Entrepreneurship, or at least certain elements of it, can be taught.B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really like and entrepreneurshipisn't all about business.C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.D. Colleges shouldn't put too much emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.10. What is the main ideaof the passage?A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.D. Kids in the information age.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:Regret is as common an emotion as love or fear, and it can be nearly as powerful. So, in a new paper, two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical American regrets most. In telephone surveys, Neal Roese, a psychologist and professor of marketing at the School ofmanagement at Northwestern UniverSity, and Mike Morrison, a doctoral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois, asked 370 Americans, aged 19 to 103, to talk about their most notable regret. Participants were asked what the regret was, when it happened, whether it was a result of something they did or didn't do, and whether it was something that could still be fixed.The most commonly mentioned regrets involved romance (浪漫的事) (18%)——lost loves or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second (16%), with people still feeling badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported regrets involved career (13%), education (12%), money (10%) and parenting (9%).Roese and Morrison's study, which is to be published in Social Psychological and Personality Science, is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of the American public, including people of all ages and socio-economic and educational backgrounds. Previous studies on regret have focused largely on college students, who predictably tend to have education-focused regrets, like wishing they had studied harder or a different major. The new survey shows that in the larger population, a person's "life circumstances accomplishments, shortcomings, situation in life- inject considerable fuel into the fires of regret," the authors write.(79) People with less education, for instance, were more likely to report education regrets. People with higher levels of education had the most career regrets. And those with no romantic parmer tended to hold regrets regarding love.Broken down (分解、细分) by sex, more women (44%) than men (19%) had regrets about love and family not surprising, since women "value social relationships more than men," the authors write. In contrast, men (34%) weremore likely than women (27%) to mention work-related regrets, wishing they'd chosen a different career path, for instance, or followed their passion. (80) Many participants also reported wishing they had worked less to spend more time with their children.There was an even split between regrets about inaction (not doing something) and action (doing something you wish you didn't). But, like previous studies, the current research found that some regrets are more likely than others to persist over time: people tend to hang on longer to the regret of inaction; meanwhile, regrets of action tend to be more recent.11. In the second paragraph, the author shows__________.A. the researchers' findingsB. the importance of familyC. the importance of moneyD. the importance of career12. According to the passage, college student participants mainly had regrets abouttheir__________.A. family and childhoodB. study and majorC. career and jobD. romance and fear13.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2015.05Part I Reading Comprehension Directions: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests.The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil.The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s,stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula(配方奶粉)."Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits," says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in the Lancet Global Health.(76) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health.This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated.For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed.In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ(智商)by a few points.But a recent study with siblings(兄弟姊妹) found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects.So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth.They are now in their 30s.First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests.Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQ test scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breastfed stayed the longer in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.第1题 From the passage, we learn that Horta

Walker was born in 1867 in Richmond, Virginia.Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house.When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father.Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home.Maggie had to help her.She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school.She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher.In 1886, she married Armistead Walker.They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them.She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order ofSt.Luke.This organization helped AfricanAmericans take care of the sick and bury the dead.Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization.The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization.In1895, she suggested that St.Luke begin a program for young people.(77)This program became very popular with schoolchildren.In 1899, Walker became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization.However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St.Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over.It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank.But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that.(78)Her idea was to get new members to join the organization.In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members.The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55.Now Walker was ready for her next big step.第6题 Maggie's father died.A.when she finished high schoolB.before she was bornC.when she was very youngD.after she got

projectC.payD.childhood答案:BWhen Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial(有争议的), citywide cell-phone ban(禁令)in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools.Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban.It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, "If we don't see it, we don't know about it." That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets. "But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, the ban has been strictly enforced.The detectors were installed to keep weapons out of schools, but the scanners(扫描器) can also detect cell phones.So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg.Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban.Workers in vans(厢式货车) that resemble food trucks store teens' cell phones and other devices for a dollara day.(79) Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency.They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory.Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones.Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy.(80)It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.第11题 Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.New York City will give financial aid to poor students.B.New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries.C.New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools.D.New York City will soon end a ban on cell, phones in schools.答案:D第12题 Students paya day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.A.a dollarsB.two dollarsC.five dollarsD.ten dollars答案:A第13题 Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keepout of schools.A.cell phonesB.weaponsC.alcoholD.drugs答案:B第14题 The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probably means.A.necessaryB.toughC.strictD.unfair答案:D第15题 According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A.After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class.B.The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools.C.The cell-phone ban was put into place in 2008 under Mayor Bill de Blasio.D.A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses.答案:DPart Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.第16题 A: Excuse me, sir.But can you tell me if there is a hotel near here?B : Eh...there is one at the street corner, two blocks away.A: Thank you very much!B:__________!A.Nice to see youB.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试附答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的) route, can be deadly for birds.“We live in an age of glass,”said Ms. Laurel,an architect. (76) “It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.”About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into buildings in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat (栖息地) loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.(77) As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too have calls to makethem less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standards for new buildings in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this fall as part of its environmental certification process.There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet (紫外线的) signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and nets are the main options available.Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. "You don't necessarily have to treat every window," Ms. Laurel said. "It would be too expensive to do the whole building." The Jacob IC Javits Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns.1. What is the main idea of the passage?A. New York is a city of glass towers.B. Glass towers are dangerous for migrating birds.C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings.D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States.2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds?A. Climate change.B. Habitat loss.C. Lack of food.D. Crashing into buildings.3. What does the word“fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean?A. Choices.B. Explanations.C. Solutions.D. Developments.4. are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.A. Dot patternsB. ShadesC. NetsD. Covers5. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes.B. The Jacob K. Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of birdcrashes.C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year.D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F. D. R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations (革新) are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was at Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital (数字的), they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to fred kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship (企业家才能) education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation, which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses, noted that more than 5,000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two-and four-year campuses-up fromjust 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell, a Kauffman vice president, says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence, which used to be found only inbusiness schools. Now, the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical schools, and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is inall the programs,”she says.“We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own_, students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas, writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and, often, market. In their spare time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses for bean; industrial design majors at Syracuse, in a special laboratory, create wearable technologies.(78) The entrepreneurship movement has its critics' especially among those who see college asa time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don't think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national: need,”says Daniel S. Greenberg, author of Science for Sale: The Perils, Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A. Schlesinger, Babson College's president, says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is“an age-old argument.”6. When Google and Facebook were established, the founders were still__________.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage, what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education?A. To prepare students for future academic life.B. To prepare students to fred oppommities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare students to develop interpersonal skills.8. Theword“prototype”in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean __________A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S. Greenberg think of entrepreneurship education?A. Entrepreneurship, or at least certain elements of it, can be taught.B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really like and entrepreneurshipisn't all about business.C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.D. Colleges shouldn't put too much emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.10. What is the main ideaof the passage?A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.D. Kids in the information age.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:Regret is as common an emotion as love or fear, and it can be nearly as powerful. So, in a new paper, two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical American regrets most. In telephone surveys, Neal Roese, a psychologist and professor of marketing at the School ofmanagement at Northwestern UniverSity, and Mike Morrison, a doctoral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois, asked 370 Americans, aged 19 to 103, to talk about their most notable regret. Participants were asked what the regret was, when it happened, whether it was a result of something they did or didn't do, and whether it was something that could still be fixed.The most commonly mentioned regrets involved romance (浪漫的事) (18%)——lost loves or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second (16%), with people still feeling badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported regrets involved career (13%), education (12%), money (10%) and parenting (9%).Roese and Morrison's study, which is to be published in Social Psychological and Personality Science, is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of the American public, including people of all ages and socio-economic and educational backgrounds. Previous studies on regret have focused largely on college students, who predictably tend to have education-focused regrets, like wishing they had studied harder or a different major. The new survey shows that in the larger population, a person's "life circumstances accomplishments, shortcomings, situation in life- inject considerable fuel into the fires of regret," the authors write.(79) People with less education, for instance, were more likely to report education regrets. People with higher levels of education had the most career regrets. And those with no romantic parmer tended to hold regrets regarding love.Broken down (分解、细分) by sex, more women (44%) than men (19%) had regrets about love and family not surprising, since women "value social relationships more than men," the authors write. In contrast, men (34%) weremore likely than women (27%) to mention work-related regrets, wishing they'd chosen a different career path, for instance, or followed their passion. (80) Many participants also reported wishing they had worked less to spend more time with their children.There was an even split between regrets about inaction (not doing something) and action (doing something you wish you didn't). But, like previous studies, the current research found that some regrets are more likely than others to persist over time: people tend to hang on longer to the regret of inaction; meanwhile, regrets of action tend to be more recent.11. In the second paragraph, the author shows__________.A. the researchers' findingsB. the importance of familyC. the importance of moneyD. the importance of career12. According to the passage, college student participants mainly had regrets abouttheir__________.A. family and childhoodB. study and majorC. career and jobD. romance and fear13.

The less education he or she has, the more regrets she or he would have.B. The more education he or she has, the less regrets she or he would have.C. More women than men had regrets about love and family.D. The regret of action seems to last longer than that of inaction.15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How regret is understood by a typical American.B. Common regrets Americans have.C. Why regret is more important than love and hate.D. How regret has shaped Americans.Part ⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

2016年北京成人学位英语考试题答案

2016年北京成人学位英语考试|答案+80136728==Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter.Passage OneHere's a familiar story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a furry, four-legged friend scratching at your feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle (爱抚)chemical.The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding. Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left behindby the humans.Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change. They became moreloyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bondwith each other. These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now knowas dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their environment.This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them. And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytocin?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C. It is in the human gene.D. It is good for health.12. When we look deeply into a dog's eyes,the levels of our oxytocinA. reduce over timeB. go either up or downC. are on the riseD. remain unchanged13. At the beginning wolves followed humans to .A. eat the food left by humansB. guard against large animalsC. take humans for foodD. hunt large animals together14. Over time some wolves turned into dogs .A. due to their loyaltyB. due to the changing environmentC. for better survivalD. for better cooperation15. What does Nagasawa9s study aim to do?A. Explore the role of human-wolf partnership.B. Show the characteristics of the cuddle chemical.C. Explain the bond between humans and dogs.D. Understand the evolution of species.Passage TwoRed Nose Day (RND) is a well-known event in the UK. The aim of the day is to raise money for a charity called Comic Relief which helps people in need in Africa and in the UK.Comic Relief was started in 1985 by the scriptwriter Richard Curtis. He wrote the famous films 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and 'Notting Hill'. Richard's idea to start Comic Relief was as a response to the severe famine in Ethiopia* It's called Red "Nose Day as on this day many people buy a plastic red nose to wear! The money made from selling red noses goes to the charity.Red Nose Day takes place every two years in the spring and is now so well established that many people consider it to be an unofficial. For example, many schools have non-uniform days.The slogan for the last RND was ‘Do Something Funny for Money' and the money that was collected helped to fund projects in the following areas, treating malaria(疟疾), education, and mental health. The BBC Red Nose Day program raised £74.3 million! Money-raising events take place all over the country and many schools participate. People also donate money by post, in banks, by phone using a credit card and online.In the evening of Red Nose Day a telethon takes place on the BBC TV channels. It shows on and on a selection of the events of the day, as well as lots of comic sketches and reports of how the money raised will be spent. People also upload videos of local charity events on YouTube and Facebook.So, if you are ever in the UK on Red Nose Day, now you know why you may find normal people wearing red noses and doing silly things! It's all for a good cause.16. Red Nose Day is .A. a traditional holiday in the UKB. a famous event in BritainC. the helping center for poor peopleD. the popular name of a charity17.

2016年5月学位英语真题(含答案)

2016年5月学位英语真题(含答案)

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2016·05·07Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Passage 1Questions 1to 5 are based on the following passage:Dr. James Barry was the first woman in England to go to medical school. When she was growing up, women could not go to medical school.(76) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.No one knows Dr. Barry's real name, her birth date, or her family's background. Some records show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at the University of Edinburgh.James Barry's classmates made fun of her because she didn't have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At the age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later, she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the army physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr. James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Everyone admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army.(77) At that time, England had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica.In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she Was soon known as the best doctor and surgeon in the colony. She saved the life of the governor's daughter, and later she became the governor's personal doctor. People admired Dr. Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker. If people talked about her high voice or tiny figure, she became very angry. She was an excellent swordsman, and she started fights often.1. According to the passage, Dr. Barry was made fun of because she ______A.had a low voiceB. had a runny beardC. was tallD. was short2. Which of the following about James Barry is a fact?A. She had a rich father.B.She became a medical student in 1810.C.She was born in Edinburgh.D.She was a royal princess.3.Which of the following about James Barry is NOT TRUE?A.She was a troublemaker.B.She worked in many foreign countries.C.She made great contributions to the British Army.D.She was the best doctor in London.4.Dr. Barry was not happy when people talked about her________.A.familyB.jobC. universityD. voice5. The word swordsman in Paragraph 4 probably means_________.A.someone who is skilled at fighting with a swordB.someone who is skilled at fighting with a gunC.someone who often fights with other peopleD.someone who often makes trouble for other peoplePassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a larger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use.If Governor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will become the second state, after Hawaii,to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other tobacco products; More than 100 cities in the U.S.,including New York and Boston; have already raised the age limit..A week ago,the California Assembly approved the measure, which----in addition to raising the age limit, treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products, expands smoke-free areas,increases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly's vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased the age to buy tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying (游说)from tobacco interests. The measure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in policing people's personal choices. "I don't smoke.I don't encourage my children to," said Republican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. "But they're adults, and it's our job to treat our citizens as adults."But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legally purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. "This will save the medical system millions of dollars," said Democratic Assemblyman Jim Wood.(78) "It will save thousands of lives." A 2015 study by the Institute of Medicine "found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nationwide,tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today's teens reached adulthood.In addition,there would be 223,000 fewer premature (过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer."6. Which of the following is the first state to raise smoking age to 21?A. California.B. Hawaii.C. New York.D. Washington.7. The California law includes all the following measures EXCEPT________A.enlarging no-smoking areasB.allowing counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettesC.increasing smoking bansD. punishing parents who encourage their children to smoke8.The word policing in Paragraph 3 probably means________.A. enrichingB. controllingC. UnderstandingD. protecting9.Who is against the bill?ernor Jerry Brown.B.Assemblyman Donald Wagner.C.Assemblyman Jim Wood.D.The mayor of San Francisco.10. Which of the following is an appropriate title for the passage?A.California Lawmakers Vote to Raise Smoking Age to 21B.San Francisco Increased the Age to Buy Tobacco Products to 21C.Hawaii Has Already Raised the Age Limit to Buy TobaccoD.A California Bill Faces Opposition from Many RepublicansPassage 3Questions 11to 15 are based on the following passage:Chokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes {路面坑洼). The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. "I decided I was going to do something about the pothole problem in my city," Chokwe says. His solution: an APP (手机应用)that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks. "When the app detects a pothole,it is highlighted (突出显示)in red," Chokwe says. "And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you." Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them;The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. "It works by using the city's 311 call system, so it uses information already stored in a database," Chokwe says.(79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems------which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype (原型).(80) Although the app isn't yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to improve it. The prototype remains limited to 10 streets in Jackson, but he hopes to add more, so that it includes every street in the city. And then he wants to go even farther. "I want to keep working on the app until it's nationwide," Chokwe says.11.. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Solution to Traffic JamsB.An App to Detect PotholesC.Pothole Problems in Big CitiesD. Poor Road Conditions12. The phrase kick off in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.A.leaveB.inventC.beginD. shift13. People use the 311 call system to report________.A. emergenciesB.terrorist attacksC. non-emergenciesD. child abuse14. The prototype focuses on ______streets in Jackson.A.10B. 15.C. 20D. 2520. according to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Chokwe developed the app all by himself.B. People can buy this app from the online store.C. His mother's car was once damaged over a pothole.D. The app works by using the city's 911 call system.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)16.

2016.05Reading Comprehension Directions:There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some ques-tions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a larger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Gover-nor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will become the second state, after Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other tobacco products. More than 100 cities in the U. S., inclu-ding New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.A week ago, the Caiifomia Assembly approved the measure, which--in addition to raising the age limit--treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products, expands smoke-free areas, in-creases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly' s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased the age to buy tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying (游说)from tobacco interests. The meas-ure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in po-licing people' s personal choices. "I don' t smoke. I don' t encourage my children to," said Re-publican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. "But they' re adults, and it' s our job to treat our citizens as adults. "But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legally purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. " This will save the medical system millions of dollars," said Democratic Assemblyman Jim Wood. ( 76 ) "It will save thousands of lives. " A 2015 study by the Institute of Medicine "found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nation-wide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today' s teens reached adulthood. In addi-tion, there would be 223,000 fewer premature ( 过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer.

When she was grow-ing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.No one knows Dr. Barry' s real name, her birth date, of her family' s background. Some re-cords show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at the University of Edinburgh.James Barry' s classmates made fun of her because she didn' t have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At the age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later,she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the ar-my physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr. James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Every-one admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. ( 78 ) At that time, Eng-land had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was sooL known as the best doctor and surgeon in the colony. She saved the life of the governor' s daughter, and later she became the governor' s personal doctor. People admired Dr. Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker.

The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. "I decided I was going to do something about the pothole prob-lem in my city," Chokwe says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks. "When the app detects a potheole, it is highlighted(突出显示) in red," Chokwe says. "And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you. " Drivers can also use the app to report any pot-holes" they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on Current available information about the streets of Jackson. "It works by u-sing the city' s 311 call system, so it uses information already stored in a database," Chokwe says.(79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems--whiCh in-clude potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jack-son would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype(原型).(80) Although the app isn' t yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to im-prove it. The prototype remains limited'to 10 streets in Jackson, but he hopes to add more, so that it includes every street in the city. And then he wants to go even farther. "I want to keep working on the app until it' s nationwide," Chokwe says.第11题Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.A Solution to Traffic JamsB.An App to Detect PotholesC.Pothole Problems in Big CitiesD.Poor Road Conditions答案:B第12题The phrase kick off in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to__________.A.leaveB.inventC.beginD.shift答案:C第13题People use the 311 call system to report__________.A.emergenciesB.terrorist attacksC.non-emergenciesD.child abuse答案:C第14题The prototype focuses on __________ streets in Jackson.A.10B.15C.20D.25答案:A第15题According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A.Chokwe developed the app all by himself.B.People can buy this app from the online store.C.His mother' s car was once damaged over a pothole.D.The app works by using the city's 911 call system.答案:CVocabulary and Structure Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.
