And even if he does not become rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what "keeping up with the Joneses" is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $125 a week atthe age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand decided that he too would ride a horse. When he saw that rich people had servants, Momand decidedthat he too would have servants. He and his wife also bought a very large house in the neighborhood.But keeping up with the Joneses was hard work, and it brought a lot of stress. Because there was always someone who had more money, a nicer house, a faster car, etc. Momand and his wife could not keep up with all of them, and so they moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with the neighbors.

Of course, you save time by reading fast, but this is not the main reason for fast reading. The main reason is that you understand better what you are reading when you read fast.As your eyes move along the line of print, they make fixations (注视). It is important that you see several words at a fixation. It is also important that your eyes leave a group of words quickly and move on to another group. The number of letters or words that you see at a fixation iscalled your eye span. Pay attention to improving your eye span so that you can read more words at a fixation.Some people read very slowly one word at a time. Others keep their eyes on the same group of words for a long time. This is a bad habit in reading. If you have this habit, you should try to break it.1. The main reason for reading fast is that ____.A. you can save time.B. you can make fewer fixations.C. you can understand better.D. you can read more words at a fixation.2.

It is not important to improve your eye span.Passage 4.For many people, the name Baskin - Robbins is linked to sweet memories of eating ice cream.

Thousands of years ago, people caught fish in nets and traps. They also fashioned hooks from bones and stones. Taking fish with nets for food is called commercial fishing. Fishing with a hook and line for fun is called sport fishing.Perhaps the greatest appeal in fishing for fun is the opportunities it offers to get outdoors, to enjoy the company of friends and to use new and various skills to catch the fish.In fishing,a set of ethic exists based on consideration for others. One job is to take no more fish than one needs. Some of the best fishers catch fish for the spirit of it and then release them unharmed for some else to catch. The sport methods a person uses in catching fish and the consideration shown for others while fishing are the marks distinguishing a true fisher. 26.

Of course, the younger generation's love of traditional culture does not happen randomly, but it is a natural result of their hope to live a cultural life. Young people are also attracted by the intrinsic and unique charm of countless traditional culturaltreasures waiting to be discovered.Social media platforms have became vital for museums to promote themselves. Douyin's 2023 Museum Date Report states that the total number of views of museum-related videos on the platform last year reached about 51.3 billion,66 times the annual number of museum visitors nationwide , which in turn brings life to traditional Chinese culture again.Previously, young people paid little attention to traditional Chineseculture, but now it's different, There are many media reports that inheritors of traditional cultural treasures now talk widely about their work on different media platforms, which has indirectly encouraged more young people to learn about and carry on the treasures.31. What does the word "subject’, in the third line of the passage refer to?A. New media technologiesB. Unprecedented waysC.Traditional Chinese cultureD.Young people32. The underlined word“charm"in the first paragraph probably means__A. attractionB. confidenceC.loveD.treasurePassage 3关于巨石阵,暂无,更新及答案关“学硕学堂”Passage 4Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put out water supply in danger but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways. You may wonder how paving(铺砌)a road can lead to less usable fresh water. A major Part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers, it come from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱)than areas with more rainfall but in any case goodmanagement can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference ,too .In the United States. A family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.You can take steps to save water in your home. To start with use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day. Run your dishwasher(洗碗机) only when it is full . Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.41.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A. Why throwing rubbish can put our water supply in dangerB. How we affect our water supplyC. How building roads leads to water shortageD. Why water comes from underground42.Which of the following can help tackle water shortage according to the second paragraph?A. Changing our water needsB. Preventing droughtsC. More rainfallD. Good management43.The underlined word “dripping” in the last paragraph probably means___.A. supplying clean waterB. producing small drops of waterC. containing large amounts of waterD. moving on the surface of water44.What is the topic of the last paragraph?A. How to conserve water at homeB.How to repair leaking tapsC. How to wash drinking glassesD. How to keep our water supply clean45.What does the author advise us to do to help keep our water supply clean?A. run dishwashersB. supply drinking waterC. recycle batteriesD. measure the amount of the wasted waterPart IV Translation(30 points)(I) Translate the following sentences from English into Chinese(5 points each for No.46 through No.48;15 points in all).46.

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 11-15 are based on the following passageCollege professors these days face an ever-higher bar to grab the attention of theirs students, forced to compete with the pulling power of smartphones and laptops in large lecture halls.Butwhen your professor is a social media star, it is a little bit easier.Tatiana Erukhimova, who teaches physics at Texas A&M University, has managed to get her students, as well as future generations, excited about the science.Known as“Dr.Tatiana” to her students and online fan base, the professor performs physics tricks with boundless energy and enthusiasm, Videos of her theatrical demonstrations have attracted hundreds of millions of views across social media platforms.As part of the physics department's extensive program, she also puts on shows almost every week teaching physics to K-12 students, The sooner kids are taught physics and taught it well, the better, she says. It is clear she knows what it takes to get young people excited about science. But it was not always that way.When she first started teaching college freshman classes almost two decades ago.she says she struggled to grab the attention of her younger students. She was used to teaching juniors, as she had for a few years prior to that. By junior year, students majoring in physics are committed to learning, she says. But when it comes to teaching a large lecture hall of 100-plus first-year students, first impressions are make or break“I did not grab their attention on the first day-that was my mistake,"she says.“I missed this opportunity to bond with them from the very beginning."By the second semester, she adjusted her approach to make her lecture halls feel smaller, and get her students engaged.The key, she says, has been to make herself approachable and her instruction personal."“Talk to your students before and after class, walk up and down the stairs when you teach your class rather than stay on the stage. And don't just lecture, talk to them.make it interactive. When you ask the question, you expect the answer,"she says. “If you don't have the answer, you go to them and you still make them work with you-it's not always easy, but when you' re close to them, it's definitely easier."11.

He says automated cameras can help fill that blank.“The question is, how do we arrange them in a fair way with the public support?"Adkins said.No one likes getting a speeding ticket. But the objections to automated traffic enforcement go deeper than that. “It is doubtful that safety is the real goal,"said Jay Beeber, with the National Motorists Association, a driver advocacy group."We need to make sure that our cities have all the tools that are effective to reduce traffic deaths,"said Laura Friedman, a state lawmaker in California who sponsored the state law authorizing automated cameras.“We make sure it can't be a money grab,because the money can only be used for physical speed-lowering improvements on the same streets where you're using the cameras,"she said. “So it's really about changing the culture and slowing traffic down."16.

Critical.B. Intolerant.C.Sympathetic.D. Unconcerned.20.According to Laura Friedman, automated cameras are used toA. sponsor the state lawB. collect more money for schoolsC. let drivers respect the speed limitD. improve the traffic flow in the cityPassage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Experts suggest that Americans stop worrying about getting a perfect eight hours of sleep, and warn that stressing about the magic number may actually result in a drop in sleep quality and duration.Dr, Reena Mehra, a director of sleep research at the Cleveland Clinic, held that focusing too much on falling asleep may interrupt the process, “It works against the individual."she said.According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than a third of Americans do not achieve the recommended seven to nine hours of sleep per night. The agency also found that quality sleep is determined by major sleep episodes that do no have frequent awakenings.One paper looking into the ideal amount of sleep found that “Sleep duration recommendations issued by public health authorities help to inform the population of interventions, policies, and healthy sleep behaviors, However, the ideal amount of sleep required each night can vary between different individuals due to gene-related factors and other reasons, and it is important to adapt our recommendations on a case-by-case basis."In the past, a lack of sleep was a sign to bosses that a person was productive and successful. But today, people try to create strategies to make the best use of their rest Researchers, scientists, psychologists and individuals in the sleep business said that the best course of action when it comes to sleep is to relax.Albert Einstein College of Medicine clinical associate professor of psychology DrShelby Harris said patterns and routines are more important than the magic eight-hour number, However, she stressed that people do not need to be so rigid that they can no longer sleep at all if they have to break from their routine to work late or deal with a restless child. Harris also noted that it is essential to remember that humans were able to sleep peacefully well before the invention of drugs and technology. “The pressure we put on ourselves is making sleep worse,"she said.21.In writing Paragraph 2, the author aims to _____A. give a definitionB. draw a conclusionC. make a comparisonD. support a viewpoint22.According to Paragraph 4, the ideal amount of sleep required each night ____A. can affect genesB. is based on policiesC. is different from person to personD. should be revised by public authorities23. According to Paragraph 5, in the past, a person lacking sleep was probably regarded as, ____A. an old personB. an able personC. a person creating strategiesD. a person making good use of his or her rest24. According to the last paragraph, Dr. Shelby Harris thinks that ______A. rigid persons need longer sleepB. a magic number can make you peacefulC. good sleep habits can improve your sleep qualityD. drugs and technology are essential for a restless child25. Where is the passage most probably taken from?A. An essay on trade.B. A report of public health.C. A review of a sports event.D. An introduction to an agency.Section B (15 points)Directions: In this section, some sentences have been removed from the following passage.

This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% - the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of the fresh water is polluted.However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing rapidly - almost day by day. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our precious water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it.Today, in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system. From there it goes to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks. But it is possible to pipe used water to a purifying plant. There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as if it were fresh from a spring.But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do is to make use of the vast reserves of sea water in the world. If we can find a cheap way to get rid of the salt, we would have all the water that we could ever need.35. The world is thirsty for water because ______.A. man hasn't got enough food to eat.B. we can't use all of the water covering the earth's surface.C. only 75% of the earth's surface is covered with water.D. more water is sent into sewer systems.36. The underlined word "purifying" in the third paragraph means"______".A. freezingB. heatingC. cleaningD. mixing.37. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. We can drink the sea water after getting rid of the salt.B. Some fresh water is polluted.C. Man's need for water is getting greater and greater.D. There are ways to reuse water.38. To solve the water problem, we should first ______.A. make use of sea water.B. stop polluting water.C. develop ways of reusing water.D. purify used water.39. The best title for the passage would be "______".A. The Importance of Water.B. The World's Water Problem.C. The Thirsty World.D. Fresh Water and Sea Water.Passage 2.A young man once went into town and bought himself a pair of trousers. When he got home, he went upstairs to his bedroom and put them on. He found that they were about two inches too long.He went downstairs, where his mother and his two sisters were washing up in the kitchen. "These new trousers are too long," he said. "They need shortening by about two inches. Would one of you mind doing it for me?" His mother and sisters were busy and none of them said anything.But as soon as his mother had finished washing up, she went quietly upstairs to her son's bedroom and shortened the trousers by two inches. She came downstairs without saying anything.Later on, after supper, the elder sister remembered her brother's trousers. She was a kind - hearted girl, so she went quietly upstairs and shortened the trousers by two inches.The younger sister went to the cinema, but when she came back, she, too, remembered what her brother had said. So she ran upstairs with her scissors, needle and thread and shortened the trousers by two inches.You can imagine the look on the young man's face when he put the trousers on the next morning.40. The young man bought the trousers ______ inches too long.A. twoB. fourC. sixD. eight.41. His mother and sisters didn't answer him because they were ______.A. busyB. not at homeC. unhappyD. in the cinema.42. Who was the last to shorten the trousers?A. The mother.B. The elder sister.C. The younger sister.D. The young man himself.43. The next morning the young man would find that the trousers were______ inches too short.A. twoB. fourC. sixD. eight.Passage 3.There are many different kinds of cars in the world. My cousin thinks this is because cars are like their drivers. He says, "Rich people have expensive cars, big people have large cars, and old people drive old cars." But I don't agree with him.My opinion is that cars are for people to get from one place to another. While you're driving, you have to think about a lot of things, such as the road, other cars, people, traffic lights, etc. Rich people may have more money, but they don't always buy expensive cars. Big people may not always drive large cars. And old people may sometimes drive new cars.There are different kinds of cars for different needs. For example, a sports car is good for speed, a truck is good for carrying things, and avan is good for families with a lot of children.Some people like to drive a car because they think it gives them more freedom. They can go where they want to go, when they want to go. Otherslike to drive a car because it makes them feel important.In conclusion, cars are an important part of our lives. We should choose the car that suits our needs and lifestyle.44. The writer's cousin thinks that ______.A. cars are for people to get from one place to another.B. rich people have expensive cars, big people have large cars, and old people drive old cars.C. different kinds of cars are for different needs.D. cars give people more freedom.45.

So how much will it cost every year to study at an American school? Generally speaking, the answer is: a lot. The University of Washington says foreign students are paying more than thirty-six thousand dollars this year. Its website says the University of Washington does not offer financial assistance to international students.This is generally true of American schools, especially at the undergraduate level. It means foreign students are faced with a heavy financial burden.The international application for the university includes a Statement of Financial Responsibility that must be signed. Students must also provide a bank letter or statement from within the past six months. And they have to name anyone who will help with payments. These people must send proof from a bank to show that they have the money.The government or employer may be able to help you pay all or some college costs. A good idea is to ask at least eighteen months before you want to start classes in the United States.Enough time should be ensured to go through procedures.59. Which statement is true according to the first paragraph?A) Foreign students in America can hardly support themselves.B) They should show that they are able to pay the first year of their study.C) Room-and-board refers to the expense on meals and accommodation.D) Students intending to attend an American college or university should explain who will pay fortheir education.60.

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of then there are 4choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence of sport ---- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself, he has to think only about winning. He is responsible for entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.A good example is the football World Cup. Football is third world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he' 11 think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentinean really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it's nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.41. What is the author' s main purpose in the passage?A. To explain the role of sport.B. To compare Scotland with Argentina.C. To show that Argentina is better than all others.D. To prove that football is the world' s most important sport.42. In the second paragraph, the word "summit" means _______________ .3A. awardB. summaryC. highest pointD. mountain top43. According to the passage, Argentina is world-famous because of its______________.A. obvious position on the mapB. successes in the football World CupC. excellence at most important sportsD. large number of sports fans and supporters44. According to the passage, if a sportsman only thinks about winning, he will_____________.A. fail to succeedB. lose enjoymentC. be successfulD. be unreasonable45. What is the author's attitude towards international games?A. Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.B. Nations that win the football World Cup are regarded as best in all aspects.C. Nations that win in international games prove the best on the sports field atleast.D. Nations that give much attention to international competitions areworld-famous in many ways.Passage 2Most cities and/or states in the U. S. collect a sales tax on almost everything you buy. You must ask when you move into a new community how much the local sales tax is, and what items are and are not taxable. Both taxable items and the amount of tax vary considerably from place, from one of two percent in some places up to eight or ten in others. The New York City sales tax, for examples, is currently 8%, so if you buy a pair of $ 40 shoes you will actually have to pay $ 43.20. This makes paying and getting correct change much more difficult (not to mention making everything more expensive). We say in America that only two things in life are unavoidable: one is death and the other taxes.Another thing that makes money exchanges more complicated is tipping. The Chinese people have happily put an end to tipping, but Westerners are still plagued with this indignity. Waiters and waitresses, cab drivers, hotel bellboys, barbers and hairdressers and all sorts of other people must be tipped. Their employers give them low wages because it is expected that you, the customer, will make up the difference. If you don't, the service person can't earn a living. Tipping also varies from place to place, generally in the area of 15% of your bill (before taxes), but again you should ask local residents whom to tip and how much.There is another kind of tipping as well. You are generally expected to give something (either cash or a bottle of whisky) to the mailman and to your building "super" at Christmas time. You should discuss this also with neighbors and colleagues.46. The main idea of this passage is ______________.A. shopping and tippingB. sales and shoppingC. sales taxes and tippingD. sales taxes and people47. According to the passage, if you buy a pair of $ 50 shoes in the New YorkCity, you pay extra ____________as sales tax.A. $4.5B. $4C. $5D. $5.548. Usually, cab drivers _________________.A. get high wages from the employer Bget great benefits from the employerC. get low wages from the employerD. get high bonus from the employer49. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?4A. The Chinese people have to pay tips in western countries.B. The westerners don't have to pay high tips in their own country.C. Barbers, hotel bellboys and all sorts of other people can earn a living if they are not tipped.D. Tipping varies from place to place, generally in the area of 20% of your bill.50. Usually, taxable items and the amount of tax _________________.A. have no difference from place to place in the U. S.B. are over 15% in the U. S.C. have been put an end in the U. S.D. vary from place to place in the U. S.Passage 3In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child must physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called "classical conditioning''. This occurs when one event or stimulus is consistently paired with or followed by, a re- ward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to associates his mother's face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort. Negative emotions are learned in a similar fashion.The second kind of learning is called "operant conditioning". This occurs when an individual learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries and cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more.Every day, we grow and have new experiences. We constantly learn by reading, watching television, interacting with other people, and so forth. This learning affects our emotions. Why is it that we learn to like some people and dislike others? If a person is nice to us, cares about us, we learn to associate this person with positive feelings, such as joy, happiness, and friendliness. On the other hand, if a person is mean to us, does not care about us, and even deliberately does things to harm us, we learn to associate this person with negative feelings, such as unhappiness, discomfort, and anger.51. The author's main purpose in writing the passage is to____________.A. teach children how to learn to produce and experience certain emotionsB. give the general reader an account of two basic kinds of learningC. give parents some advice on how to modify their children's emotionsthrough learningD. discuss with psychologists how positive and negative feelings areproduced52. If your jokes often find a ready echo in a person, you will learn through ______________that telling jokes to this person is fun, and you will try with greater efforts to be humorous in his presence.A. classical conditioningB. neither of themC. operant conditioningD. some other sorts of conditioning53. If a child is bitten or startled several times by a dog, he may learn to associate furry animals with pain or startle and thus develop a fear of furry animals. This is a typical example of learning through____________.A. classical conditioningB. both of them5C. operant conditioningD. neither of them54. In the third paragraph, the author is_____________.A. discussing how we grow and have new experiences every dayB. talking about learning to modify emotions through operant conditioningC. concentrating on learning by reading, watching television, interacting with people, and so onD. using examples to further illustrate learning through classical conditioning55. In the following paragraphs the author will most probably go on to discuss______________.A. definitions of positive feelings and negative feelingsB. the third kind of learningC. further examples of learning through operant conditioningD. none of the abovePassage 4You are a German living in Berlin. One day you're walking down in a street minding your own business, when suddenly a stranger approaches with a smile on his face. After stopping you, he holds a small electronic device close to his face and speaks slowly into it, saying, in English: "Can you tell me where I can buy some sauerkraut?" What should you do? (a) Run away'; (b) Call the police; or, (c) Listen closely for the device to say, in German: "Konnen Sie mir bitte sagen, wo ich Sauerkraut kaufen kann?"The most appropriate response would be (c). because the person in front of you is only a tourist trying to enjoy himself. The device is said to be the world's first portable translator------- a hand-held microcomputer that at the same time converts one spoken language into another. The four-pound, battery-operated product is called the V oice, and it is the creation of Advanced Products and Technologies, an American electronic company. When the V oice is introduced in the United States in late April ----- at a price of $1,500 -- it will be capable of converting spoken English into Italian, German, French and Spanish. The product comes with separate cartridges (盒式存贮器) for each of the four languages, which can be changed when the user travels from one country to another. The item will be sold in Europe soon after the U.S. introduction, with cartridges that convert Italian, German, French and Spanish into English.The voice uses a microchip (微型集成块) and artificial intelligence to translate languages. It is started by voice command and produces voice output through a built-in speaker. When the user makes a statement or asks a question, the Voice immediately repeats what has been said in another language.56. The stranger holding the V oice seems to be____________.A. asking for some informationB. greeting the GermanC. amusing himselfD. practicing his German57. The German sentence "konnen Sie...kann?" means_____________.A. "Why don't you ask the policeman?"B. "Would you listen closely for the device to say?"C. "Can you say it again, please?"D. "Can you tell me where I can buy some sauerkraut?"58. The word "speaker" in the last paragraph refers to _____________.A. the person who speaks to the deviceB. a component part of the V oiceC. the person who speaks GermanD. the speech produced by the V oice59. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. The V oice is an invention of an electronics company.B. The Voice is a hand-held translator.6C. The Voice is a new product in wide use.D.
