外国语学院大学外语教学部2009年8月2009级《大学英语》分级考试试卷Part I. Reading Comprehension (40%)irections: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the questions or incomplete statements following the passage. You must read thefour choices marked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Thenmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throughthe center.(2’×20)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.It has been a widespread belief that the American family is dying. But a new study reveals that the American family is stronger than ever. This study affords surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life.The American family is changing, not dying. It is becoming smaller, men and women are becoming more equal, and the divorce rate is higher. But despite the high divorce rate, marriage has never been more popular. The majority of divorced people remarry, but only 2% marry more than twice. Most marriages last a long time, and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages. Depending on the specific situation, there’s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up.There is no evidence that children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home. So far the amount of educational or development time hasn’t varied very much, whether or not the mother works outside the home. In fact, working mothers try to make up for it by setting aside time only for their children.The study shows that television is by far the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century. The most important activity for children up to age 14 is watching television.School is the second most time-consuming activity for children. They spend an average of about 19 hours a week in school. A larger proportion of children go to school earlier than ever before, and they stay in school longer. Another big change is that the proportion of very young children in daycare centers (日托站) has almost doubled in recent years. Compared with these two dramatic changes in child activity, the changes caused by mothers working outside the home appear very small.1 The main idea of this article is that _______.A. the American family is dyingB. young people today don’t want to get marriedC. the American family is changing, but it is stronger than everD. education has resulted in dramatic changes in the American family2 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Marriage is more popular than before.B. Many divorced people remarry.C. The majority of marriages last long.D. Working mothers devote less time to their children.3 The author of this article believes that ________.A. the American family is here to stayB. children should not watch so much televisionC. mothers should not work when their children are smallD. teenage marriages should be encouraged4 What is the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century?A. The daycare center.B. Television.C. The school.D. Development time.5 According to the writer, which two major factors have led to the belief that the Americanfamily is dying?A. The divorce rate is high and working mothers neglect their children.B. The divorce rate is high and children care more about television than anything else.C. Divorces are increasing and many teenage marriages break up.D. Children stay in school longer and mothers have little time to take care of them. Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives you wha t --- and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries toda y-so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They are given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, this giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharinga feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.6 The first paragraph is written to tell readers that ________.A. the gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB. the gifts you receive are helpful for you to know the personality of those who givethemC. gifts can show friendship and loveD. there is a certain relationship between the kinds of gifts and the people who givethem7 A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter ________.A. clothesB. a homemade giftC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD. a gift that matches the character of the giver8 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. What you wear can tell something about your personality.B. Homemade gifts are not welcomed in some countries.C. People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to thinkthey do.D. Reading books given to you as gifts can be a way of sharing a feeling with the giver.9 If you give a large, heavy book as a gift, it may show that _________.A. you are knowledgeableB. the receiver is interested in readingC. you dislike readingD. you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contents10 People who want to show their love towards others often give _______.A. homemade giftsB. delicious foodC. expensive clothesD. interesting booksPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.My love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my grandparent’s farm in Suffolk. I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more thananyone: she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do zoology at university.I didn’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn’t know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exac ta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea starfish. I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologic ally correct. There are people who will alter things deliberately: you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignora nce in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact that there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless, wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime, as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.11 The author decided to go to university and study zoology because _______________.A. she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB. she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC. she was keen on the natural worldD. she wanted to stop moving around all the time12 How is the author different from some of the other wildlife photographers she meets?A. She tries to make her photographs as attractive as possible.B. She takes photographs which record accurate natural conditions.C. She likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D. She knows the best places to find wildlife.13 The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wild animals because______________.A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars14 According to the author, wildlife photography is important because it can make peoplerealize that ___________________.A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals15 Which of the following describes the author?A. Proud.B. Sensitive.C. Aggressive.D. Disappointed.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” onlin e-many of them are talking at the same time.It is fast: trying talking to six people at once. It is convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(= be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (= pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (= on the floor), or LOL (= laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (= rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (= got to go) or TTYL (= talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.16 When people are online, they talk by_____.A. using body language.B. drawing some strange picturesC. making phone callsD. making use of an especially short form of English17 Internet makes many people in the world ______.A. talk at the same timeB. discover their friends and relativesC. pick out good things to buyD. find out about some problems in society18 The underlined sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanation”(L.1, para. 4)means that _____.A. people should use words properlyB. people should know what time it is when they are talkingC. people online have to express themselves in a simple wayD. people should communicate in a funny way19 If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to your A/S/L, it means ______.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is highB. you are talking to a boy 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes20 Which of the following is a way to save online time?A. People seldom use capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Many people draw pictures.C. People only use the mouse instead of the keyboard.D. People never use the “shift” key.Part II.

2008中山大学英语分级考试

更多资讯请留意:中大青年网中山大学新生英语入学测试试卷College English Placement TestSeptember 7, 2008Part ⅠListening comprehension (25%)Part ⅡReading comprehension (1%,20%)Directions:There are 4 passages in this part. Each passages is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:A third of Britons are overweight, states a report published in January by the Royal College of Physicians, the result of an 18-month-long study. About five per cent of the children weigh too much, and are likely to stay that way for life; in the mid-twenties age group the proportion of fat people rises to a third, and of the middle-age population half are overweight.Fat people risk severe health problem, says the report, including high blood pressure, breathlessness, and various forms of heart disease. Smoking is particularly risky for overweight people.The safest way to lose weight is to eat cereals, bread, fruit and vegetables, and cut down on fatty meats, butter and sweet foods. Fat diets do far more harm than good; slimming machines that vibrate muscles have not been proved useful; saunas merely remove a little body water, and health farms, says the report, serve as expensive holidays.Exercise is most important to health, the report emphasizes; though it doesn't necessarily reduce weight, it maintains the correct proportion of body fat to body muscle. And it isn't only for the young. From middle age a minimum of 20 minutes of gentle physical jerks should be practiced three times a week.The report advocates several public health measures to combat the high prevalence of overweight in this country. They include an increase of tax on alcohol to reduce its increasing, and dangerously fattening, consumption; and the provision of more sports facilities by local authorities. Britain's doctors, the report concludes, must learn to be more sympathetic and specific in their advice to the overweight, encouraging a change in eating habits on a long-term basis, and taking into account the many -often complex - reasons why fat people are fat31. The passage mainly talks about_______.A. Britons' overweight problemB. how to avoid getting overweight更多资讯请留意:中大青年网C. the cause of Britons overweightD. the relations between overweight and health problems32. According to the report, a person is most likely to stay fat for the whole of his life if he________.A. gets fat in his twentiesB. gets fat in his middle ageC. was born fatD. gets fat when he is a child33. The report suggests that exerciseA. is a way to reduce weightB. is a sure way to keep one healthyC. sometimes increases weightD. can convert fat to muscle34. The report points out that drinking too much alcoholA. will also cause a person to get overweightB. will cause a person to do less sportC. will make a person forget the fact that he is fatD. will lead a person to bad eating habits35. Britain’s doctors, when treating the overweight, shouldA. encourage a long-term diet for everyoneB. be more considerate and give detailed adviceC. first consider why so many people are overweightD. do all of the abovePassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Knowing ahead of time how to get out during a fire can save needed time. The best way out in a fire is the route you use to go in and out everyday. Yet in a fire this route may be blocked. Be sure to plan other escape routes.Practice your escape plan an night when it is dark. Be sure that your plan is good and will work. For instance, make sure that a child can actually open the window he is supposed to use for his escape. Teach children to close their bedroom doors. Tell them to will by an open window until someone can reach them from outside. If an adult cannot be wakened, children should understand that they must leave by themselves.Choose a meeting place outside. This way you can tell if everyone is safely out of the building. Know where nearby telephones or fire alarm boxes are found.If you live in an apartment, try to get everyone out. Learn where the fire alarm is in the building. Your family should know what the fire alarm bell or horn sounds like. They should know what to do when they hear it. Try to get the other families in your building together to have fire drills. Write down the telephone number of the fire department. Tape the number to each phone. Don’t forget to let the babysitter in on your plans. Tell your babysitter what to do in case of fire.Early warning is the key to a safe escape. It has been shown time and time again that a family can escape if warned early enough.36. Which of the following statements is true?A. You must take the route you use to go in and out in a fire.更多资讯请留意:中大青年网B. The route is always blocked in a fire.C.

If you are trapped in a bedroom during a fire, you should______.A. hide under the bed.B. stand in a cornerC. lie still.D. close the bedroom doors.40. When the best time to practice escape plan?A. At duskB. In the afternoonC. In the morningD. At nightPassage ThreeQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society. There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes more readily in human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp dichotomies(一分为二). This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.41. The passage is mainly discussing _______.更多资讯请留意:中大青年网A. two different societiesB. the necessity of social changeC. certain factors that determine the ease with which social changes occurD. certain factors that promote social change42. ______ is one of the factors that tend to promote social change.A. Joint interestB. Advanced technologyC. Different points of viewD. Less emotional people43. The expression greater tolerance(paragraph 1)refers to _____.A. greater willingness to accept social changeB. quicker adaptation to changing circumstancesC. more respect for different beliefs and behaviorD. greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas44. According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?A. Social change tends to meet with more difficulty in basic and emotional aspects of society.B. Disagreement with and argument about conditions tend to slow down social change.C. Social change is more likely to occur in the material aspect of society.D. Social change is less likely to occur in what people learned when they were young.45. Why has change not come more quickly to Black Americans as compared to white people?A. Black people used to be slavesB. White people are of more different originsC. Black people are poorD. White people like to make shape changePassage fourQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:Most employers say that they wish to employ the right person for the right job. A recent report by Britain's Independent Institute of Manpower Studies,however,disagrees with this. The report states that most employers wish to avoid employing the wrong person. Rather than looking for the right person,they are looking for applicants to turn down.The report also suggests that in Britain and in many other parts of the world,the selection methods used to pick out the right person for the job certainly do not match up to those used to judge a piece of new equipment. Employers used three main selection methods: interviewing,checking resume or application forms and examining references. Most of the employers asked in this survey stated that these selection methods were used more for “weeding out” unsuitable applicants rather than for finding suitable ones.Interviews were considered to be more reliable than either resume checks or references from past employers. Research,however,proves otherwise. Interviewers’ decisions are often strongly influenced by their earlier judgment of the written application. Also,different employers view facts differently. One may consider applicants who have frequently changed jobs as people with broad and useful experience. Another will see such applicants as unreliable and unlikely to stay for long in the new job.更多资讯请留意:中大青年网Some employers place great importance on academic qualifications whereas the link between this and success in management is not necessarily strong. Some employers use handwriting as a standard. The report states that there is little evidence to support the value of the latter for judging working ability. References,also,are sometime unreliable as they are not very important,while checks on credit and security records and applicants' political opinions are often the opposite.The report is more favorable towards trainability tests and those which test personality and personal and mental skills. The report concludes by suggesting that interviewing could become more reliable if the questions were arranged in a careful,organized system and focused on the needs of the employing organization.46. According o the passage, when most employers want to hire workers, _______.A. they will try to find suitable peopleB. they will look for the right applicantC. the wrong applicants are to be turned downD. to turn down the wrong people is what they say they aim to do47. It is implied that ______.A. to evaluate a right person is more difficult than to evaluate equipmentB. employers are more successful in selecting the right equipment than the right personsC. criteria will be set up according to the real situation of the applicantsD. curriculum vitae means application forms48. Most of the recruiters ______.A. consult the applicantsB. can find suitable peoplesC. prefer curriculum vitae or referencesD. use different ways to sort out the unsuitable applicants49. Which of the following is True?A. Employers get different conclusions from the facts.B. Changing jobs frequently will reduce the change to be recruited.C. Academic qualifications will guarantee the applicant managing ability.D. Handwriting is a valid way to evaluate an applicant.50. It can be inferred from the passage that successful employees will be those who _____.A. have outstanding referencesB. are strong in emotional quotientC. take interviewing seriouslyD. have strong political leaningsPart ⅢVocabulary and Structure (35%Section A (1%, 30%)Directions: there are a number of incomplete sentences in this part.

Read each passage carefully, and then answer the questions that follow. Choose the best answer from the four choicesgiven and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square bracketson your machine-scoring Answer Sheet.Passage 1:The agricultural revolution in the nineteenth century involved two things: the invention of labor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture. Labor-saving machinery naturally appeared first where labor was scarce. "In Europe", said Thomas Jefferson, "the object is to make the most of their land, labor being abundant; here it is to make the most of our labor, land being abundant". It was in the United States, therefore, that the great advances in nineteenth-century agricultural machinery first came.At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural implements on their backs; by 1860, most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early form. The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow. As early as 1790 Charles Newbold of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his invention. The farmers, however, were not interested in it, claiming that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds grow. Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to the plow, until in 1869 James Oliver of South Bend, Indiana, turned out the first chilled-steel plow.61. What is the main topic of the passage?A. The need for agricultural advances to help feed a growing populationB. The development of safer machines demanded by the labor movementC. Machinery that contributed to the agricultural revolutionD. New Jersey as a leader in the agricultural revolution62. The word "naturally" in line 3 is closest in meaning to ________.A. unsurprisinglyB. graduallyC. apparentlyD. safely63. Which of the following can be inferred from what Thomas Jefferson said?A. Europe was changing more quickly than the United States.B. Europe had greater need of farm machinery than the United States did.C. The United States was finally running out of good farmland.D. There was a shortage of workers on United States farms.64. What point is the author making by stating that farmers could carry nearly all their tools on their backs?A. Farmers had few tools before the agricultural revolution.B. People in the United States were traditionally self-reliant.C. Life on the farm was extremely difficult.D. New tools were designed to be portable.65. When was the iron plow invented?A. In 1790.B. In the early 1800s.C. In 1869.D. In the early 1900s.66. The word "it" in line 12 refers to ______.A. scientific agricultureB. James Oliver‟s inventionC. the cast-iron plowD. Charles Newbold‟s fortunePassage 2:Lost for WordsMany minority languages are on the danger listIn the Native American Navajo nation, which sprawls across four states in the American south-west, the native language is dying. Most of its speakers are middle-aged or elderly. Although many students take classes in Navajo, the schools are run in English. Street signs, supermarket goods and even their own newspaper are all in English. Not surprisingly, linguists doubt that any native speakers of Navajo will remain in a hundred years‟ time.Navajo is far from alone. Half the world‟s 6,800 languages are likely to vanish with two generations--that‟s one language lost every ten days. Never before has the planet‟s linguistic diversity shrunk at such a pace. …At the moment, we are heading for about three or four languages dominating the world,‟ says Mark Pagel, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Reading. …It‟s a mass extinction, and whether we will ever rebound from the loss is difficult to know.‟Isolation breeds linguistic diversity: as a result, the world is peppered with languages spokenby only a few people. Only 250 languages have more than a million speakers, and at least 3,000 have fewer than 2,500. It is not necessarily these small languages that are about to disappear. Navajo is considered endangered despite having 150,000 speakers. What makes a language endangered is not just the number of speakers, but how old they are. If it is spoken by children it is relatively safe. The critically endangered languages are those that are only spoken by the elderly, according to Michael Krauss, director of the Alassk Native Language Center, in Fairbanks.Why do people reject the language of their parents? It begins with a crisis of confidence, when a small community finds itself alongside a larger, wealthier society, says Nicholas Ostler, of Britain‟s Foundation for Endangered Languages, in Bath. …People lose faith in their culture,‟ he says. …When the next generation reaches their teens, they might not want to be induced into the old traditions.‟The change is not always voluntary. Quite often, governments try to kill off a minority language by banning its use in public or discouraging its use in schools, all to promote national unity. The former US policy of running Indian reservation schools in English, for example, effectively put languages such as Navajo on the danger list. But Salikoko Mufwene, who chairs the Linguistics department at the University of Chicago, argues that the deadliest weapon is not government policy but economic globalization. …Na tive Americans have not lost pride in their language, but they have had to adapt to social-economic pressures,‟ he says. …They cannot refuse to speak English if most commercial activity is in English.‟ But are languages worth saving? At the very least, there is a loss of data for the study of languages and their evolution, which relies on comparisons between languages, both living and dead. When an unwritten and unrecorded language disappears, it is lost to science.Language is also intimately bound up with culture, so it may be difficult to preserve one without the other. …If a person shifts from Navajo to English, they lose something,‟ Mufwene says. …Moreover, the loss of diversity may also deprive us of different ways of looking at the world,‟ says Pagel. There is mounting evidence that learning a language produces physiological changes in the brain. …Your brain and mine are different from the brain of someone who speaks French, for instance,‟ Pagel says, and this could affect our thoughts and perceptions.…The patterns and connections we make among various concepts may be structured by the linguistic habits of our community.‟So despite linguists‟ best efforts, many languages will disappear over the next century. But a growing interest in cultural identity may prevent the direst predictions from coming true. …The key to fostering diversity is for people to learn their ancestral tongue, as well as the dominant language,‟ says Doug Whalen, founder and president of the Endangered Language Fund in New Haven, Co nnecticut. …Most of these languages will not survive without a large degree of bilingualism,‟ he says. In New Zealand, classes for children have slowed the erosion of Maori and rekindled interest in the language. A similar approach in Hawaii has produced about 8,000 new speakers of Polynesian languages in the past few years. In California, …apprentice‟ programmes have provided life support to several indigenous languages. Volunteer …apprentices‟ pair up with one of the last living speakers of a Native American tongue to learn a traditional skill such as basket weaving, with instruction exclusively in the endangered language. After about 300 hours of training they are generally sufficiently fluent to transmit the language to the next generation. But Mufwene says that preventing a language dying out is not the same as giving it new life by using it every day. …Preserving a language is more like preserving fruits in a jar,‟ he says.However, preservation can bring a language back from the dead. There are examples of languages that have survived in written form and then been revived by later generations. But a written form is essential for this, so the mere possibility of revival has led many speakers of endangered languages to develop systems of writing where none existed before.Question 67-70: Choose the most appropriate word for each blank to complete the summary of the passage.There are currently approximately 6,800 languages in the world. This great variety of languages came about largely as a result of geographical (67) _____ But in today‟s world, factors such as government initiatives and (68) _____ are contributing to a huge decrease in the number of languages. One factor which may help to ensure that some endangered languages do not die out completely is people‟s increasing appreciation of their (69) _____. This has been encouraged through programmes of language classes for children and through …apprentice‟ schemes, in which the endangered language is used as the medium of instruction to teach people a (70) _____. Some speakers of endangered languages have even produced writing systems in order to help secure the survival of their mother tongue.67. A. result B. difference C. diversity D. isolation68. A. adaptation B. policies C. encouragement D. laws69. A. value B. use C. teaching D. function70. A. skill B. language C. lesson D. wordQuestion 71-75: Who gave out the following statements? Choose the person who gave out each statement.71. Endangered languages cannot be saved unless people learn to speak more than one language.A. Doug WhalenB. Salikoko MufweneC. Nicholas OstlerD. Mark Pagel72. Saving languages from extinction is not in itself a satisfactory goal.A. Doug WhalenB. Salikoko MufweneC. Nicholas OstlerD. Mark Pagel73.

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:There's no doubt that primitive mankind first trod the world without the benefit of clothing. Historians suggest that thousands, perhaps millions of years passed before animal skins became fashionable. Then, sometime in the dim past, man discovered that the hair of certain animals pressed together stayed together. The fabric known as felt replaced animal skins. No one knows the age of felt - only that it was in use long before Neolithic man learned how to weave cloth a mere twelve thousand years ago.The manufacture of felt is simple. Seen through a microscope, the hair of many animals appears as a barbed strand, the barbs all pointing toward the tip of the hair. When a number of hairs are pressed together, those which lie in opposite directions unite barbs and resist efforts to pull them apart.Legend has it that St. Clement (patron saint of felt makers) discovered felt when, at the beginning of a long journey, he put carded wool between his feet and the soles of his sandals. When he reached his destination, he found no carded wool in his sandals. The wool had been compressed into felt.1.

全国英语等级考试等级划分

全国英语等级考试等级划分

全国英语等级考试等级划分大学英语考试CET分为三级、四级、六级;英语专业考试TEM分为四级、八级;公共英语考试PETS分为1~5级;剑桥商务英语BEC分为一、二、三级;翻译资格考试(CATTI)分为口译和笔译,各有一、二、三级;职称英语考试分为初级、中级、高级。

一、大学英语考试CET(College English Test)全国大学英语等级考试是教育部主管的一项全国性的教学考试,其目的是对大学生的实际英语能力进行客观、准确的测量,为大学英语教学提供服务。

全国大学英语等级考试分为三级、四级、六级。

二、英语专业考试TEM(Test of English Majors)英语专业等级考试,分为英语专业四级(TEM4)和八级(TEM8) ,考试目的是为检测全国高校本科英语专业教学大纲执行情况而进行的本科教学考试。

大学英语专业:最高级别是英语专业八级。

英语专业的学生必须获得的证书。

为保证通过率,很多大学不允许提前报考。

专四:英语专业第4学期(大二下学期4月份)基础阶统测;专八:英语专业第8学期(大四下学期3月份)高级阶统测。

成绩:三个级别,60-69分是合格:70-79分是良好80分及以上是优秀。

考试合格后颁发的证书终身有效。

专四、专八都只有两次机会,次年同一时期补考,专四是在4月,专八是在3月,即大学毕业后的下一年3月。

自2003年起,考试不合格可以补考一次,但补考合格后发合格证。

所以,尽量争取一次性过关。

三、公共英语考试PETS(Public English Test System)公共英语考试是教育部考试中心设计并负责的全国性英语水平考试体系。

作为中、英两国政府的教育交流合作项目,在设计过程中它得到了英国专家的技术支持。

级别划分为PETS-1至5级。

PETS-1:一级是初始级,其考试要求略高于初中毕业生的英语水平(PETS-1B是全国英语等级考试的附属级)。

PETS-2:二级是中下级,相当于普通高中优秀毕业生的英语水平(此级别笔试合格成绩可替代自学考试专科阶段英语(一)、文凭考试基础英语考试成绩)。

(A)“Good morning”, the easiest of daily greetings, is now out of style.According to most manner experts, “good morning” is vanishing from our speech and taking good manners along with it.Nowadays people are most likely to greet each other in the morning with a “Hi”, “Hey,” “ What’s up” or “ How’s it going” Certainly no one waits for answers to these greetings.The loss of “Good morning” is the most visible example of the general decline in how we address each other. “How people talk to each other has declined,” said manner authority Letitia Baldrige. “We need to be warmer to each other.” Baldrige said she mourns the loss of “Good morning.”“It’s the nicest, cheeriest, brightest thing to say. It makes people feel good,” she said.“You are almost forced to smile with it. When you say ‘good morning’, your face is inclined to light up.”Manner expert Judith Ri said there are a number of factors contributing to the loss of this greeting: a workplace that doesn’t encourage social interaction, neighborhoods that have abandoned community togetherness, and a home environment where parents are lazy in encouraging manners and where TV and computer games win out over gathering for the family dinner.“We are simply not as formal as we used to be,” said Judith Ri with a sigh.根据上面文章内容,从每题下面四个选项中选出一个最合适的答案,并在答题纸上将所选的编号字母涂黑。
