But he adds that "very little of the complicated tax law applies to young people who are just beginning their careers". According to Gilbert, 80 to 90 percent of Americans are not really burdened by the system's complications.Still, all the numbers and forms can be a little confusing to those who are just starting their careers. Some pull out their calculators and try to do the math alone. Some use income tax software. Others just hand the whole responsibility over to tax firms like Gilbert's. According to income tax law expert Linda Beale, young people will often follow their parents' lead when filling their income forms."Young people who grow up in wealthy households typically use professional tax services because their parents have always done so," said Beale, a professor at Wayne State University in Michigan State."On the other hand, most poorer young people probably try to do their own taxes, unless they want a quick 'refund' with the help of a tax advisor".In fact, obeying the law has its benefits. For one, many young people can expect a tax refund. This means that, over the course of the year, they have paid too much in monthly federal or state taxes and are entitled to the difference.Bob Thalman, a 20-year-old university student, expects he will get a refund of about 100, which will probably go in the bank, or perhaps be used to pay for car insurance or credit card bills.Thalman called the whole process a "hassle", but added that he didn't wat to test the law by not filling his income tax papers."I'm worried about what would happen if I failed to file," he said. "I know one individual who did not report his income tax for many years, and he's now in federal prison. I certainly don’t want that."16.A college student with a part-time job is not required to file an income tax form.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned17.The US income tax system does not wholly apply to a college graduate who is just beginning his or her career.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned18.It's pretty easy for a beginner to report his or her income tax.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned19.When young people file their income tax form, they will often follow in their parents' footsteps.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned20.Young people from poorer families needn't file their income tax forms.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned21.If one has failed to report his or her income tax for quite a few years, he or she may be put in prison.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned22.The US income tax system will be simplified in the next few years.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned概括大意与完成句子Tunguska Event1 A hundred years ago this week, a giganticexplosion ripped (撕裂) open the day y above a forest in western Siberia, leaving ascientific riddle that endures to this day.2 A dazzling light pierced the heavens,followed by a shock wave as strong as 1,000 atomic bombs. The explosionflattened 80 million trees across an area of 2,000 square kilometers. Thefireball was so great that, a day later, Londoners could read their newspapersunder the night sky. What caused the so-called Tunguska Event, named after thenearby Podkamennaya Tunguska river, still remains a mystery.3 Experts suspect it was a rock that, aftertraveling in space for millions of years, was destined to crash to Earth atexactly 7:17 a.m. on June 30, 1908. This possibility worries scientists.“Imagine an unspotted asteroid (小行星) hitting a significant chunk(块) of land ... and imagine if that area, unlike Tunguska, werepopulated,”the British science journal Nature commented recently.4 But no fragments of the “rock”have everbeen found. Finding such evidence would be important, for it would increase ourknowledge about the risk posed by dangerous Near Earth Objects (NEOs), sayItalian researchers Luca Gasperini, Enrico Bonatti and Giuseppe Longo. When thenext Tunguska NEO approaches, scientists will have to decide whether to try todeflect (使偏转) it or blowit up in space.5 However, several rival theories for theTunguska Event exist. Wolfgang Kundt, a professor at Germany's Bonn University,believes the Tunguska Event was caused by a massive escape of 10 million tonsof methane(甲烷)-rich gasfrom deep within earth's crust. Some people hold that the explosion was causedby an alien spaceship crash, or a black hole in the universe.23. Paragraph 224. Paragraph 325. Paragraph 426. Paragraph 5A. Competing ExplanationsB.

The error occurs because of a flaw in the way they estimate animal numbers from the piles of dung (粪) the creatures leave behind.The mistake could lead researchers to think that there are twice as many elephants as there really are in some regions, according to Andrew Plumptre of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) in New York.Biologist Katy Payne of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, agrees. "We really need to know elephant numbers and the evidence that we have is quite indirect," says Payne, who electronically tracks elephants.Counting elephants from planes is impossible in the vast rainforests of Central Africa. So researchers often estimate elephant numbers by counting dung piles in a given area. They also need to know the rate at which dung decays: Because it's extremely difficult to determine these rates, however, researchers counting elephants in one region tend to rely on standard decay rates established elsewhere.But researchers at the WCS have found that this decay rate varies from region to region depending on the climate and environment. Using the wrong values can lead the census astray (离开正道), says Plumptre.He and his colleague Anthony Chifu Nchanji studied decaying elephant dung in the forests of Cameroon. They found that the dung decayed between 55 and 65 per centmore slowly than the dung in the rainforests of neighbouring Gabon. If researchers use decay rates from Gabon to count elephants in Cameroon, they would probably find more elephants than are actually around.This could mean estimates in Cameroon are at least twice as high as those derived from decay rates calculated locally, says Plumptre. "However accurate your dung density estimate might be, the decay rate can severely affect the result."Plumptre also says that the dung-pile census should be carried out over a region similar in size to an elephant's natural range. The usual technique of monitoring only small, protected areas distorts numbers because elephants move in and out of these regions, he says. "If the elephant population increases within the protected area, you can not determine whether it is a real increase or whether it is due to elephants moving in because they are being poached (入侵偷猎) outside."Plumptre says that similar problems may also affect other animal census studies that rely on indirect evidence such as nests, tracks or burrows (地洞).1The word "threatened" in the first sentence of the first paragraph could be best replaced byA "endangered".B "frightened".C "killed".D "angered".2Why do researchers estimate elephant numbers in an area by counting dung piles?A Because elephants are difficult to catch.B Because it is not possible to count elephants from a plane.C Because it is not possible to keep track of elephants.D Because elephants are shy animals.3Piles of dung can't be relied upon when it comes to estimating elephant numbers becauseA they are different in size.B they scatter all over the region.C they are different in decay rate.D they are different in quality.4According to Plumptre, the region over which a dung-pile census is carried out should beA small enough.B well protected.C carefully monitored.D large enough.5 The first word "He" in paragraph6 refers toA Andrew Plumptre.B Katy Payne.C Anthony Chifu Nchanji.D the writer of the article.Black Holes Trigger Stars to Self-DestructScientists have long understood that supermassive black holes weighing millions or billions of suns can tear apart stars that come too close. The black hotels gravity pulls harder on the nearest part of the star, an imbalance that pulls the star apart over a period of minutes or hours, once it gets close enough.Scientists say this Uneven pulling is not the only hazard facing the star. The strain of these unbalanced forces can also trigger a nuclear explosion powerful enough to destroy the star from within. Matthieu Brassart and Jean-Pierre Luminet of the Observatoire de Paris in Meudon, France, carried out computer simulations of the final moments of such an unfortunate star's life,as it veered towards a supermassive black hole.When the star gets close enough, the uneven forces flatten it into a pancake shape. Some previous studies had suggested this flattening would increase the density and temperature inside the star enough to trigger intense nuclear reactions that would tear it apart. But other studies had suggested that the picture would be complicated by shock waves generated during the flattening process and that no nuclear explosion should occur.The new simulations investigated the effects of shock waves in detail,and found that even when their effects are included,the conditions favor a nuclear explosion. "There will be an explosion of the star-it will be completely destroyed," Brassart says. Although the explosionobliterates the star, it saves some of the star's matter from being devoured by the black hole. The explosion is powerful enough to hurl much of the star's matter out of the black hole's reach, he says.The devouring of stars by black holes may already have been observed, although at a much later stage. It is thought that several months after the event that rips the star apart,its matter starts swirling into the hole itself. It heats up as it does so, releasing ultraviolet light and X-rays.If stars disrupted near black holes really do explode, then they could in principle allow these events to be detected at a much earlier stage, says Jules Hatpern of Columbia University in New York, US. "It may make it possible to see the disruption of that star immediately if it gets hot enough," he says.Brassart agrees. "Perhaps it can be observed in the X-rays and gamma rays, but it's something that needs to be more studied," he says. Supernova researcher Chris Fryer of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, US, says the deaths of these stars are difficult to simulate, and he is not sure whether the researchers have proven their case that they explode in the process.36.Something destructive could happen to a star that gets too close to a black hole. Which of the following destructive statements is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. The black hole could tear apart the star.B. The black hole could trigger a nuclear explosion in the star.C.

The black hole’s matter will heat up.C. The torn star's matter will swirl into the black hole.D. The black hole's matter will release ultraviolet light and X-rays.40.According to the context, the word "disruption" in Paragraph 6 means_____A. "Confusion."B. "Tearing apart."C. "Interruption."D.

At 2.26m, he is the tallest player in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in the Games.But what really stands out about the giant center is his celebrity(名气). Few, if any, Chinese athletes are as well-known as Yao around the world. People across the globe are fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess(杰出的才能)also for being a symbol of international commerce.When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No.1 pick in the 2002 NBA draft(选抜),he was the first international player ever to be selected first. His assets on the court are clear enough—no NBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he is a handful(难对付的人)for opponents on either end of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization is his role as a global citizen and as a bridge to millions of potential basketball fans in China.When it was announced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possibly the Olympics with a stress fracture(骨折)in his left foot, a collective shudder(震动)spread across China. After considerable debate and discussion, Yao opted to get his foot surgically treated in an operation that placed several tiny screws across the bone, to offer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success, and though the estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to prepare with Team China, Yao has vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.Yao wrapped up a 10-day trip to China, where he underwent a series of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate his recovery process Western experts are generally skeptical of TCM's benefits although new research from the University of Rochester suggests that a certain compound derived from shellfish may indeed stimulate bone repair."There is no reason to dismiss TCM," Yao told a press conference in Beijing." It's been used in our country for thousands of years. I don't think that it's short on science."36.The word "towering" in Paragraph 1 means_____A. large.B. fat.C. tall.D. great.37.Opponents find it very difficult to control Yao Ming because of his_____A. mobility.B. assault.C. defense.D. celebrity.38.Yao Ming had to undergo a series of TCM treatments because_____A. his right foot had been hurting.B. he wanted to make a more rapid recovery.C. the surgical operation had been a failure.D. he couldn't afford all the medical expenses.39.Which statement about Yao Ming is NOT true?A. He missed the Athens Olympics.B. He is an NBA player.C. He fractured his left foot.D. He is an international figure.40.In general, the Western experts' attitude towards TCM is_____.A. indifferent.B. positive.C. negative.D. doubtful.补全短文Sauna【桑拿浴】Ceremonial(仪式性的)bathing has existed for thousands of years and has many forms, one of which is the sauna. The Finns have perfected the steam bath, or sauna, which may be taken, usually in an enclosed room, by pouring water over hot rocks or as a dry heat bath._____(46)Dry heat and steam baths had advocates in ancient Rome and pre-Columbian Americans used sweat lodges.The earliest saunas were probably underground caves heated by a fire that naturally filled with smoke as chimney making was unknown at that time. A fire kept in a fire-pit would heat the rock walls of the cave. After reaching full heat, the smoke was let out of the cave and the stones would retain heat for several hours._____(47)Today most saunas use electric stoves, although gas and wood-burning stoves are available.Saunas are relaxing and stress relieving. Those with muscle aches or arthritis(关节炎)may find that the heat relaxes muscles and relieves pain and inflammation(炎症). Asthma(气喘)patients find that the heat enlarges air passageways of the lung and facilitates breathing. Saunas do not cure the common cold but they may help to alleviate congestion(阻塞)arid speed recovery time._____(48)The sauna could be considered to follow the old saying "feed a cold, starve a fever". The regular use of a sauna may decrease the likelihood of getting a cold in the first place.Sauna is good for your skin as the blood flow to the skin increases and sweating occurs. Adults sweat about 2 lbs of water per hour on average in a sauna. A good sweat removes dirt and grime from pores and gives the skin a healthy glow. The loss in water weight is temporary as the body's physiological mechanisms will quickly restore proper volumes._____(49)Heart rate may increase from 72 beats per minute on average to 100-150 beats per minute.A normal heart can handle these stresses but those with heart trouble wishing to begin to use a sauna should seek a doctor's advice. The elderly and those with diabetes should check with their doctor prior to beginning to take saunas._____(50)Indeed, everyone just starting out should take short sessions at first to become accustomed to this type of bath.46._____A.an extra large sauna and steam room can be used for players to relax in.B.The cardiovascular system gets a work out as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange.C.The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals.D.The body's core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever.E.Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months.F.A few people today say that the smoke sauna, "savusauna", is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke.47._____A.an extra large sauna and steam room can be used for players to relax in.B.The cardiovascular system gets a work out as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange.C.The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals.D.The body's core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever.E.Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months.F.A few people today say that the smoke sauna, "savusauna", is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke.48._____A.an extra large sauna and steam room can be used for players to relax in.B.The cardiovascular system gets a work out as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange.C.The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals.D.The body's core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever.E.Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months.F.A few people today say that the smoke sauna, "savusauna", is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke.49._____A.an extra large sauna and steam room can be used for players to relax in.B.The cardiovascular system gets a work out as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange.C.The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals.D.The body's core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever.E.Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months.F.A few people today say that the smoke sauna, "savusauna", is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke.50._____A.an extra large sauna and steam room can be used for players to relax in.B.The cardiovascular system gets a work out as the heart must pump harder and faster to move blood to the surface for heat exchange.C.The Japanese, Greeks, Turks and Russians as well as Native Americans have forms of the sweat bath in their bathing rituals.D.The body's core temperature usually rises a 1-2 degrees while in the sauna, thus imitating a slight fever.E.Pregnant women should not take saunas, particularly in the first three months.F.A few people today say that the smoke sauna, "savusauna", is the only true sauna experience and that all saunas should have at least a background odor or smoke.完形填空An Early Form of Jazz Music【爵士乐的早期形式】Music comes in many forms; most countries have a style of their own.

2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案
2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇12016职称英语理工类A级考试真题及答案Part I Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are five passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage 1Only very distant relatives score enough “points” to become professional worsted tennis players. There is a nice blend of tomboy and prude in some of today’s good ones. Many of the precocious young titans of the courts have to fight jitters; and in the case of the junior that comes along only once a decade or so, the fight grows veritable when the captain sticks out an unbald head in a kind of harness some fifty-year-old lady put out of so-called clear scraps. (10)The fight against jitter moves in its small phases. At first, the junior finds it relatively easy to bulldoze his way through a local tournament. This gives a boost for bigger game, national and even international tournaments. The real fight is knowing how to hit on a ball on the court. This is the hard one for sexagenarian dotards to analyze—not only because the shot lingers but also because the precise moment for taking the hit comes only once every five seconds, so that knowing where the hit is going to be is batting .200; but knowing the moment is a beserk fight against time, tide and terror. Even some of the worsted pros have been known to chug at the juice to dull the squealing butterflies in their stomach. Other musclemen chug beer or radiators.If a Worst has a “good” b ad day when yards of tennis can go wham, bam, thank you ma’am, with hardly a misdeed loophole, the which what what mucks them up is more likely to come from lack of wind, since their little guts are oiled up like a used motorcycle chain. Caloric starvation due to worry may also be a cause, since as soon as that dirty laundry has gotten hung out to dry, the jitterer feels tired—such is the fight against jitter. When the national champion, a 25-year-old who can top the kiddies aaseily 6-4, 6-1 or make worse a French Korean, despite the wind breaking into three-fourths gales, gets up in themorning to meet some electron-charged fourteen-year-old, it is jitter time again.21. A fast horse may win a __________ easily.A. junior tennis matchB. small tennis gameC. game between prosD. national tennis match【答案】B22. The “moment” in the passage refers to ___________.A. the moment to take the hit on the ballB. the moment to remember the hit on the ballC. the moment to enjoy the hit on the ballD. the moment to watch the hit on the ball【答案】A23. Caloric starvation due to worry may cause a worsted pro to ___________.A. drink beerB. dul the squealing butterflies in stomachC. lug at the juiceD. feel tired【答案】D24. The national champion is likely to be topped by__________.A. another national championB. some electron-charged kidsC. some French KoreansD. some eighteen-year-old muscleman【答案】BPart II Vocabulary & Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose one answer that best completes the sentence and blacken the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.25.―Let’s send the form to the head office.―Why don’t we have Mr. Brown __________ it up?A. lookB. lookingC. lookedD. looks26. I wish they had informed me of __________ change in the schedule in advance.A. theB. aC. anD. /27.

Today, hisdiscovery of light-emitting diodes, or1 LEDs, are used in everything fromDVDs to alarm clocks to airports. Dozens of his students have continuedhis work, developing lighting used in traffic lights and other everydaytechnology.On April 23, 2004, Holonyak received the $500,000 Lemelson-MIT Prize ata ceremony in Washington. This marks the 10th year that theLemelson-MIT Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)has given the award to prominent inventors.“Any time you get an award, big or little2, it’s always a surprise.”Holonyak said.Holonyak, 75, was a student of John Bardeen, an inventor of the transistor,in the early 1950s. After graduate school3, Holonyak worked at Bell Labs.He later went to General Electric4, where he invented a switch nowwidely used in house dimmer switches5.Later, Holonyak started looking into how semiconductors could be used togenerate light. But while his colleagues were looking at how to generateinvisible light, he wanted to generate visible light. The LEDs he invented in1962 now last about 10 times longer than incandescent bulbs, and aremore environmentally friendly and cost effective.Holonyak, now a professor of electrical and computer engineering andphysics at the University of Illinois, said he suspected that LEDs wouldbecome as commonplace as they are today, but didn’t realize how manyuses they would have.“You don’t know in the beginning. You think you’re doing somethingimportant, you think it’s worth doing, but you really can’t tell what the bigpayoff is going to be, and when, and how. You just don’t know.” he said.The Lemelson-MIT Program also recognized Edith Flanigen, 75, with the$100,000 Lemelson-MIT Lifetime Achievement Award for her work on anew generation of “molecular sieves,” that can separate molecules bysize.第一篇LED的发明者当Nick Holonyak着手用半导体含金创造一种新的可视照明设备的时候,同事们都认为他不现实。

2016年职称英语等级考试用书(理工类)阅读理解、完形填空Microchip Research Center CreatedA research center has been set up in this Far Eastern country to develop advanced microchip production technology. The center, which will start out with about US $14 million, will help the country develop its chip industry without always depending on imported technology.The center will make use of its research skills and facilities to develop new technology for domestic chip plants. The advent of the center will possibly free the country from the situation that it is always buying almost-outdated technologies from other countries, said the country’s flagship chipmaker.1 Currently, chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies, fearing they will be used for military purposes. Moreover, the high licensing fees they have to pay to technology providers are also an important reason for their decision of self-reliance2.As mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years3, plants with new technology can make more powerful chips at lower costs, while4 plants with outdated equipment, which often cost billions of dollars to build, will be marginalized by the maker.More than 10 chip plants are being built, each costing millions of US dollars.5 The majority of that money goes to overseas equipment vendors and technology owners — mainly from Japan and Singapore.Should the new center play a major role in improving the situation in the industry,6 the country admits the US $14 million investment is still rather small. This country is developing comprehensive technologies. Most of the investment will be spent on setting alliances with technology and intellectual property7 owners. 词汇: microchip / 5maIkrEJtFIp / n.微芯片marginalize /`mB:dVInLlaIz/ v.忽视,边缘化flagship /5flA^FIp/ n.

2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案
2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1My Big Sister's Super Hard TestMy big sister Monica just took a really hard test called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering Class A. She had to study for it for like a whole year! It was all in English which is not even our first language. I'm only 8 years old but I tried to help her prepare as much as I could.First, she had to read all these long, boring articles and books about science and technology topics. There were chapters on mechanical design, information technology, environmental studies, and more. I didn't understand most of it but I let her quiz me on the vocabulary words. Words like "algorithm", "dimensional", "sustainable", and "mechanism." Those were hard!Then she had to practice different kinds of questions they could ask on the test. Like summarizing the main points of a passage, or answering open-ended questions analyzing the information. There were fill-in-the-blank grammar sections toowhich seemed really nitpicky. My favorite part was when she would transcribe a audio recording because I got to listen to the scientists and engineers talking in their funny accents.A few weeks before the test, Monica started doing full practice tests to get ready. They looked so long and exhausting! The listening section alone had around 25 questions and the reading had 40-50 questions, not to mention the writing section where she had to write a whole essay from scratch. I would get so sleepy and bored sitting next to her while she worked through them.Finally, the big day came and Monica went to take the Professional Title test. It lasted over 3 hours! When she came home, she looked beat. I asked how it went and she made a crooked smile and said "I'm not sure, but I gave it my best shot."I gave her a big hug because she worked so hard to get ready.A couple months later, the scores came out online. Monica passed We had a little celebration with cake and sparklers. I was so proud of my big sis. She said scoring highly on this test is really important for getting a higher professional title and pay level as an engineer in China. It was a lot of work but worth it in the end.Now I'll share some of the actual test questions and answers from Monica's test materials so you can see how hard it was:Listening ComprehensionQuestion 1: What is the main purpose of the speaker's experiment?A) To determine the optimal conditions for plant growthB) To study the effects of climate change on agricultureC) To analyze the impact of pesticides on crop yieldsD) To investigate new irrigation techniquesQuestion 2: According to the speaker, which of the following is a disadvantage of the proposed design?A) It is too expensive to implement.B) It requires a large amount of energy.C) It produces excessive noise pollution.D) It has a negative environmental impact.Reading ComprehensionPassage 1 was about the development of renewable energy sources. It described the potential benefits and challenges of solar, wind, and hydroelectric power.Question 1: According to the passage, which of the following is a major advantage of solar energy?A) It produces no greenhouse gas emissions.B) The technology is relatively inexpensive.C) Solar panels require little maintenance.D) It can be implemented in any geographic location.Question 2: The author mentions which of the following as a disadvantage of wind power?A) Wind turbines are unsightly.B) The wind is an intermittent energy source.C) Wind farms require large amounts of land.D) Both B and CTranslationDirections: Translate the following passage from English to Chinese."As the global population continues to rise, putting strain on the world's resources, there is an urgent need to transition to more sustainable practices across all sectors. In manufacturing, adopting a circular economy model can significantly reduce material waste and environmental impact. The basic principle is to design products for longevity, reuse, and recycling rather than disposability. This entails..."WritingPrompt: Advances in artificial intelligence and robotics will have a major impact on the future job market and economy. Discuss some of the potential effects, both positive and negative, that increased automation may have. What steps should societies take to prepare for these changes? Develop your position with relevant reasons and examples.Those are just a few examples, but as you can see the test covered all kinds of science, technology, and engineering topics at a pretty high level. My poor sister worked so hard to master all that advanced material in English! I'm just glad it's over and she passed. Maybe in 10 more years when I'm an adult, I'll have to take it too. But for now, I'll leave the Professional Title English Tests to my big sis!篇2The 2016 Professional Test was Really Hard!Hi everyone! My name is Timmy and I'm 8 years old. Last year, my dad had to take a really difficult English test for his job as an engineer. It was called the 2016 Professional English Test for Workers in Science and Engineering Fields (Level A). I watched him study a ton for it and he let me look at some of the questions afterward. They were super tricky! Let me tell you all about it.There was a listening section where they played conversations and talks in English and you had to answer multiple choice questions. One conversation was between two co-workers discussing a project timeline. The man said "We're already behind schedule on the Bennett project due to those supplier delays." The woman replied "Yes, and our client is getting antsy about the lack of progress." Then it asked what the "antsy" meant and I remembered my dad saying it means nervous or impatient. Tricky vocabulary words like that were all over the listening section!For the reading section, there were long technical passages about things like engineering processes, scientific research, andmanufacturing methods. You really had to concentrate and use all your brain power. I remember one passage was about a new type of renewable energy technology using biomass sources. It explained the chemical processes involved in great detail. The questions asked very specific things about the steps described in the passage. My dad spent a lot of time re-reading those dense passages very carefully.Then there was an awesome section all about technical writing and communication skills. It tested things like how to write clear instructions, describe a technical process, or synthesize information from multiple sources into one report. One question gave a bunch of details about a product design and you had to organize the details into a proper introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Another question made you identify the weakness in someone's proposal letter. My personal favorite part!But I think my dad struggled the most with the speaking section. He had to give all his spoken responses in a recording booth with a time limit. One question made him explain a complex scientific concept, like nuclear fusion or something. Another made him propose a solution to a hypothetical technical problem. And he really had to show off his English speaking skillsby using advanced vocabulary, proper grammar, good organization, and clear pronunciation.There was also a writing section where he had to type out things like design specifications, progress reports, proposals, and technical definitions. It was crazy how much writing they expected! One of the essays asked him to recommend whether a company should invest in a new eco-friendly manufacturing process based on weighing the pros and cons. I remember he kept revising and revising his essays to make them perfect.Overall, the whole test seemed incredibly challenging with all the different sections and skills it covered. My dad had to understand complex technical content, speak and write at a professional level, and demonstrate communication abilities - all in his second language of English! I was so proud of him for passing. He said it was one of the most mentally exhausting experiences of his life.I'm glad I'm just a kid and don't have to worry about taking huge tests like that for many more years. For now, I'll stick to my spelling and times tables tests at school! But it was really interesting to learn about the types of challenges that working adults in scientific and engineering fields face. Major props to anyone who can pass that Professional English beast of an exam.I have a whole new appreciation for what my dad does at his job. Let me know if you've ever had to take a crazy difficult test like that before!篇3The 2016 Professional English Test (Level A) for Science and EngineeringHello everyone! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. Our teacher Mr. Johnson told us we would be taking a very important test today called the Professional English Test for Science and Engineering. He said it's a test that real engineers and scientists have to take to show they can speak and understand English well.I was a little nervous at first, but then Mr. Johnson reminded us that even though it's a grown-up test, he made it just for us kids. Doesn't that sound fun? Let me tell you all about it!Reading ComprehensionThe first part was reading comprehension. We had to read a few passages and answer questions about them. The first passage was about how airplanes fly. It used some big words like "aerodynamics" and "lift" but Mr. Johnson helped us understand what they meant.One of the questions was: "What causes the wing of an airplane to generate lift?" I remembered from the passage that it's because the wing is tilted just a little bit, so the air flows faster over the top. The faster air moves, the lower the pressure, which pushes the wing up. I got that one right!Another passage was about solids, liquids and gases. It explained how molecules in solids are packed tightly together, while in liquids they can slide around more. And in gases, the molecules just zip around everywhere! The question asked which state has molecules that are most disorganized. I put gases because that's what the passage said.Listening ComprehensionNext was the listening part. Mr. Johnson played some audio clips and we had to answer questions after each one. The first clip was about the life cycle of butterflies. It described how they start as tiny eggs, then become caterpillars who eat a lot. After that, they weave a little cocoon and go through "metamorphosis" - that's a fancy word for the amazing changes they undergo to become beautiful butterflies!One question was: "What do caterpillars do before metamorphosis?" I marked down that they spin a cocoon, because that's what I heard in the audio. Another asked what thefour stages of the cycle are. I wrote: egg, caterpillar, cocoon, butterfly. Nailed it!The next audio clip was about the planet Mars. It covered fun facts like Mars being the fourth planet from the sun, and that it's often called the Red Planet because of its rusty color. A question asked why Mars looks red. The clip explained it's due to iron minerals in the soil - when they get exposed to oxygen, they oxidize or rust, just like an old nail here on Earth.Writing TestThen篇4The 2016 Big Important English Test for Science Smart PeopleHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm going to tell you all about this really hard English test I had to take last year. It was called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering Subjects - Level A. That's a really long name! I'll just call it the Big Science English Test.The test was super difficult because it was made forgrown-ups who are scientists and engineers and know all aboutcomplicated science and math things. But my parents really wanted me to take it anyway because they said it would be good practice for when I'm older.So early one Saturday morning, I had to go to the testing center downtown. It was in this big building with lots of classrooms. There were so many other kids and grown-ups there too, all looking really nervous. I felt a little scared, but tried to stay brave.When it was time to start, a lady came in and handed out the test booklets. Mine was so thick! It had reading passages, listening sections, writing tasks, and all sorts of stuff. Way more than we normal get for tests at school. The lady explained all the rules really slowly and clearly so everyone understood. Then she set her timer and said "You may begin!"The first part was reading comprehension. I had to read these long, long passages that talked about science topics like physics, chemistry, biology, and computer stuff. The passages used such big fancy words that I'd never heard before. I had to keep looking them up in the dictionary. After reading each passage, there were questions about the main ideas, details, vocabulary, and making inferences. Those were so hard! I had to read the passages like three or four times.Next up was the listening section. This part was a little easier for me because I just had to listen篇5My 2016 Science and English Test AdventureHi friends! Today I want to tell you all about the big important test I took last year called the Professional English Test for Science and Engineering. It was a level A test, which means it was really hard! But I studied super duper hard and I think I did a pretty good job. Let me walk you through some of the questions I had to answer.Reading ComprehensionThe first part was all about reading. They gave me a long science-y passage and asked me bunches of questions about what I read. One question was like this:Passage: ...The hydraulic system transfers force from one point to another via an incompressible fluid...Question: Which of the following is true about the fluid in a hydraulic system?A) It cannot be compressedB) It is a gasC) It transfers energy through motionD) It is made of solidsWell I knew the answer had to be A because the passage said the fluid cannot be compressed, which means it's incompressible! Wasn't that a tricky one?Another question asked me to identify the main idea of the whole passage. That was pretty hard because the passage was super long and had all these big words I didn't know. But I read it very carefully and picked the answer that seemed to sum up what the main point was.WritingAfter the reading part, I had to do some writing. They asked me to pick one of two topics and write a short essay responding to the prompt. One of the prompts was:"Many scientific advancements over the past century have dramatically improved our quality of life. However, some have also caused negative impacts on the environment and human health. Describe one positive and one negative impact of a major scientific advancement and discuss whether you believe its benefits outweigh its costs."Woah, that's a really big question for a little kid like me! But I tried my best. I wrote about how the invention of plastic has helped us have cheap packaging and containers for food and toys. But I also said plastic pollution is really bad for the environment and animals like sea turtles.At the end, I said I think the benefits probably still outweigh the costs because plastic makes so many useful things affordable for everyone. But we need to work really hard on reducing the plastic waste too. I don't know if my essay was perfect, but I felt okay about my answer!ListeningAnother section tested my listening skills. They played an audio recording all about a science topic and asked me comprehension questions. One question went something like this:Recording: "...The xylem tissue transports water and nutrients upwards from the roots, while the phloem distributes food and sugars produced by photosynthesis down to the roots and rest of the plant..."Question: According to the recording, what role does the phloem tissue play in plant biology?A) It carries water upwardsB) It transports photosynthesis productsC) It absorbs nutrients from the soilD) It produces oxygenI chose B because the recording clearly said the phloem distributes the sugars made by photosynthesis throughout the plant. I was pretty confident I got that one correct!SpeakingProbably the hardest part was the speaking section. I had to look at a picture and describe what I saw using scientific vocabulary. Then I had to answer some questions the test grader asked me based on the picture.The picture showed some kids doing an experiment with a glass of water, food coloring, and a celery stalk. The questions were things like "What do you think is the purpose of this experiment?" and "What process is being demonstrated here?"I tried to explain that the colored water was traveling up through the celery stalk because of capillary action and the vascular tissue in the plant stem. I had just learned about that inscience class, so I worked really hard to remember all the right terms!The grader also asked me to pretend I was giving instructions to someone on how to actually do this celery experiment. I walked through adding the food coloring to the water, trimming the celery bottom, placing it in the cup, and waiting to observe how the colored water moves up the stem. Phew, that part was tricky!Overall ThoughtsWell, that's a taste of what the big level A science and English test was like for me! There were writing sections, reading sections, listening comprehension, speaking prompts - it covered all the English skills!Some parts were pretty hard and had questions that made me really think. But other parts let me show off what I already knew about science topics we had covered in school. I spent a lot of time preparing by studying science vocabulary, reading science articles, and practicing my English skills.In the end, I felt like I gave it my best effort. The test was definitely challenging, but also kind of fun to take on such a big challenge. If you're going to take the Professional English Testtoo, just make sure you study really hard beforehand. And don't be nervous - just do your best!Okay friends, that's my full report on my big science and English testing adventure. Let me know if you have any other questions! Time for me to go learn about another cool science topic...篇6My Big Sister's Hard TestMy big sister Anna is really smart. She's in university studying to be an engineer. This year she had to take a super hard test called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering. It's a big important test she needs to pass to get a special title and job one day. I watched her study really hard for weeks!The test had lots of different sections - reading, writing, listening, translation, and more. Anna showed me some of the questions after and they looked so tricky! I'll share some with you:Reading ComprehensionThere were some long readings about science and technology topics. One was about 3D printing. The questions asked stuff like:What are the main advantages of 3D printing?A) Cheaper production costsB) Faster manufacturing timeC) More design flexibilityD) All of the aboveThe answer is D) All of the above. 3D printing lets you make lots of different shapes quickly and for less money than traditional manufacturing. Pretty cool!Another passage was about self-driving cars. It asked:Which of the following is NOT a key sensor used inself-driving cars?A) RadarB) CamerasC) LidarD) SpeedometerI didn't know this one, but Anna said the answer is D) Speedometer. The other choices are all sensors that help the car "see" its surroundings.WritingFor the writing section, Anna had to write a long essay about some scientific topic. One prompt asked her to discuss the pros and cons of nuclear power and give her opinion. She had to organize her ideas, provide examples, and use good grammar and vocabulary. Writing a whole essay in another language sounds super hard!ListeningThe listening part had lectures and conversations about science and engineering topics. Then there were questions testing if you understood the main ideas and details.One conversation was between two students talking about their engineering lab assignment. It asked:What was a main challenge the students faced with their project?A) Managing their timeB) Gathering dataC) Communicating with teammatesD) Identifying the right materialsAnna said the right answer was C) Communicating with teammates. The students said it was hard to collaborate smoothly.TranslationOh boy, this section was crazy! Anna had to translate sentences from English to Chinese and vice versa. The sentences used really technical scientific vocabulary.Like this one from English to Chinese:"The reactor coolant pumps circulate pressurized water through the nuclear reactor core."And this one from Chinese to English:"透射电子显微镜使用加速的电子射线来形成高分辨率图像。
