江南大学现代远程教育第二阶段测试卷考试科目:《大学英语（三）》（总分100分）时间：90分钟学习中心（教学点）批次：层次：专业：学号：身份证号：姓名：得分：一、交际英语（10％）1、- Can I borrow your digital camera for a couple of days?- ___C____A：Yes, you may not borrow.B：Yes, go on.C：Sure, here you are.

E-mail is one of the biggest threats to your home computer. By understanding how E-mail works，and by taking some steps in how you deal with reading and writing messages，you can keep this threat out of your computer. When you exchange E-mail with someone else，the messages sent between you and that person pass through several computers before they reach their places. Imagine this conversation as it is taking place in an Internet "room"，a very，very big room. Anyone，or more exactly，any program can probably understand what is being said，because most Internet conversations are not hidden in any way. As a result，others may be listening in，capturing what you send，and using it for their own good.E-mail-borne viruses (病毒) often arrive in attractive, fantastic appearances, much like the beautiful ads we receive by way of traditional mail that is made to sell us something. By beautiful appearances，an infected (感染) E-mail message seems to be something we want to read from someone we know，not a mean virus ready to destroy or damage our computers.There are some steps that you can take to help you decide what to do with every E-mail message with an attachment (附件) that you receive. You should only read a message that passes all of these tests:1) The Know Test: Is the E-mail from someone that you know?2) The Received Test: Have you received E-mail from this sender before?3) The Expect Test: Were you waiting for E-mail with an attachment from this sender?4) The Meaning Test: Do the topic line of the E-mail message and the name of the attachment both have meanings?5) The Virus Test: Is the E-mail infected?(1)、The main idea of the first paragraph is that we should learn how E-mail works to take care of our computers. AA：TB：F(2)、The underlined word "capturing" probably mean "Taking". AA：TB：F(3)、As the Internet is open to anyone，we should not read and write messages in our home computers. BA：TB：F(4)、The passage is mainly talking about The Safety of Home Computers. AA：TB：F(5)、E-mail-borne viruses can infect human body. BA：TB：F2、My secret for staying young is simple. Put all attention to the part of your brain and keep it young and growing. Keep your mind awake and you'll stay young all over. These are exciting times. Take an interest in the world around you, and stick to learning at least one new thing every day. No matter how old you are, it's not too late to make your life more interesting. I know a housewife with no knowledge before she made herself into a well-known engineer. I know a retired electrical engineer who has become a highly-paid dress designer. Get over the idea that you are too old to go back to school. I know a man who entered medical college at 70. He got his degree with honours and became a famous doctor. Another man went to law school at 71 and now was an active lawyer. Staying young is easy for those, old or young, who live in the future. You can do it if you care enough to try. Keep your mind awake and active: that's the only way.(6)、According to the passage, that people's brain of all ages remains young and growing is__B__. A：impossibleB：a scientific factC：a secretD：a wrong conclusion(7)、It is wrong for the old to___A___.A：think himself too old to go back to schoolB：keep his mind awakeC：try to stay youngD：lead an active life(8)、The passage says that the man who entered college at 70 ___D____.A：was unthinkableB：became tired of his lifeC：wanted to be a highly-paid manD：became famous in the medical circle(9)、The only way to keep young is__D____.A：to go back to schoolB：not to consider one's ageC：to live in the futureD：to keep one's mind awake and alive(10)、The writer suggests that you should __C___learning at least one new thing every day.A：take care ofB：set outC：keep onD：turn to3、When I begin to look back on all friends whom I have had, I quickly came to the conclusion that Jerry was the most important and had the greatest effect upon my life. His family moved to my block when I was only 10. Jerry was 15 at the time, but the fact that he was so much older than me seemed to make no difference to him. I was very glad that he liked me. We took long walks together, on which he would tell me stories he had heard form TV and radio programs.But as months went by, a change came into our friendship. Jerry almost stopped coming by the house, and every time I went to his house or telephoned, he put me off with some excuses such as "I'm studying now" or "I've got some jobs to do for Mum". When we passed on the street, he would still give me a warm smile and friendly wave with a "Hi, kid", but he would hardly ever stop to talk. Finally I realized that he was no longer interested in me and that his taste had changed. I noticed him with a girl once in a while and several times saw him going out in his family's car on a Friday or Saturday night. I simply couldn't understand what was so great about girls and parties.But I was hurt when he finally made me know that our friendship was at an end. Of course he didn't really mean to hurt me, but it was a long time before I realized that it was an age problem that caused the break. There were a world of differences between the ideas and interests of a 17-year-old and a 12-year-old. Now that I'm over sixteen myself, I realized this, and the hurt I got then has become happy memories of the good times we were once together. I wonder if millions of other boys and girls have had a similar experience.(11)、When the writer and Jerry first met, Jerry was ___B___. A：10 years oldB：5 years older than the writerC：of the same age as the writerD：the writer's classmate(12)、Their friendship lasted for __C____.A：a few yearsB：a few weeksC：a few monthsD：a few hours(13)、Jerry stopped playing with the writer because __D____.A：the writer had changedB：he was busy with his studyC：he has some jobs to doD：he was not interested in the writer(14)、When a change came in their friendship, the writer __B____. A：accepted it at onceB：couldn't understand his friend for a long timeC：stopped visiting his friendD：started going to parties with girls(15)、The main idea of the passage is that __A____.A：the age difference plays a part in friendshipB：friendship is the most important thing for childrenC：many boys and girls have a similar experience as the writer D："friends are made in wine and tested in tears"三、词汇与语法（10％）1、____D_____her and then try to copy what she does.A：MindB：SeeC：Stare at2、Don't ____D____ your study. We are going to help you.A. worryB. be afraidC. be worriedD. worry about3、It's ___C_____ that he was wrong.A. clearlyB. clarityC. clearD. clearing4、The patients are quite ___D___ to the nurses for their special care.A. enjoyableB. helpfulC. confidentD. grateful5、It is ____A___ for people to feel excited when they start doing something new.A. normalB. ordinaryC. averageD .regular四、完型填空（10％）Traffic accidents killed more than 104,000 people in China last year.

We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called "One On One" helps elementary students who've fallen behind. Your education majors might be especially interested in it because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching, that is, tutoring in math and English.You'd have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose to help a child with math, English, or both. Half-hour lessons are fine, so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week.Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutors---he'll be available to help you with lesson plans or to offersuggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. You can sign up for the program with him and begin the tutoring next week.I'm sure you'll enjoy this community service…and you'll gain valuable experience at the same time. It looks good on your resume, too, showing that you've had experience with children and that you care about your community. If you'd like to sign up, or if you have any questions, stop by Professor Dodge's office this week.6．What is the purpose of the talk? ____________ BA：To explain a new requirement for graduation.B：To interest students in a new community program.C：To discuss the problems of elementary school students.D：To recruit elementary school teachers for a special program.7．What is the purpose of the program that the dean describes? __________ CA：To find jobs for graduating students.B：To help education majors prepare for final exams.C：To offer tutorials to elementary school students.D：To provide funding for a community service project.8．What does Professor Dodge do? ____________ AA：He advises students to participate in the special program.B：He teaches part-time in an elementary school.C：He observes elementary school students in the classroomD：He helps students prepare their resumes.9．What should students interested in the tutorials do? __________ DA：Contact the elementary school.B：Sign up for a special class.C：Submit a resume to the dean.D：Talk to Professor Dodge.10．Whom do you think the speaker addresses to? _________ BA：FacultyB：StudentsC：FreshmanD：Graduating students of the university.Passage TwoAll over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy, happy and help them to live longer.Sports change with the season. People play different games in winter and summer.Games and sports often grow out of people's work and everyday activities. The Arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around theworld. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese boxing, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. People are inventing new sports or games all the time.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person's character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.11．According to this passage we know that people began to play about one hundred years ago.

Young men will never again goto war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that r equires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny things like the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.11-15 DBABD11. In the past, many young people ______.A. knew the effects of warB. went in for politicsC. liked to save the wounded in warsD. were willing to be soldiers12.

The adults are less violent than the young.15. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.A. children should keep away from TVprograms should be improvedC. children’s books should have picturesD. TV has a deep influence on the youngPassage 2Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking. The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry.For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to . The “eye contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people wh o don’t like each other. The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.16-20 BBDAD16.

In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty- six courses, each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks. While attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, andthe record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this is imposes pressure from the strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed example by cheating, has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him or her in his or her career.11. Normally a student would at least attend ___B___ classes each week.A) 10 B) 12 C) 15 D) 2012. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed ___D____.A) to live in a different universityB) to take a particular course in a different universityC) to live at home and drive to classesD) to get two degrees from two different universities13. American university students are usually under pressure of work because____A___A) their academic performance will affect their future careersB) they are heavily involved in student affairsC) they have to observe university disciplineD) they want to run for positions of authority in student organizations.14. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probablybecause___C_A) they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB) they will then be able to stay longer in the university.C) such positions help them get better jobsD) such positions are usually well paid.15. The studentorganizationseem to be effective in ___D_____.A) dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB) ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC) evaluating students, performance by bringing them before a courtD) keeping up the students, enthusiasm for social activitiesPassage 2You have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion because you lost a great deal of blood in the accident. However, special care should be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own , the transfusion could kill you.There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test can indicate a person’s blood type, which, like hair and height, is inherited from parents.Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can give to any other group; hence it is often called the universal donor. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal recipient. However, because so many reactions can occur in transfusions, patients usually receive only salt or plasma(liquid)until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In his way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion. There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeansand people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.good title for this passage is___B____A) Getting Blood and Plasma B)Special Blood TypesC) Human Blood TypesD)The Blood Bank of a Hospital17. The word “ hence” in line 8 means____C___A) always B) often C) therefore D) seldom18. In a blood transfusion, it is easiest to find the acceptable type of blood for a personwith the blood type of _C__.A) A B) B C) AB D) O19. The purpose of using salt and plasma before a blood transfusion is to allow time___A__.A) to test the reactions to the transfusionB) for matching the blood to be transfused with the patient’s blood.C) for the blood to be delivered from the blood bankD) to select a new type of blood for the patient20. Most European have blood type___D___A) A B)B C) O D) A or OPassage 3An old woman walked into a clothes shop. She asked the salesgirl to let her have a look at a new dress on display, but the girl stood still behind the counter, taking no notice of the request(要求). The old woman spoke to the girl again, raising her voice a bit, but still received no answer. The old woman looked at the girl and said to herself: "I am too old to see well, I can't even tell a plastic model from a real girl!"On hearing this the rude salesgirl shouted at the old woman, "What? Did you call me a plastic model?" The old woman was greatly surprised. "Oh, dear me." she said, "the model can speak! Then it must be a robot of a new type!"21．The shop sells vegetables.

Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny things like the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.11. In the past, many young people ______.A. knew the effects of warB. went in for politicsC. liked to save the wounded in warsD. were willing to be soldiers12. Now with TV people can _____.A. discuss politics at an information centerB. show more interest in politicsC. make their own decisions on political affairsD. express their opinions freely13. The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.A. are not reliable on the wholeB. are useless to peopleC. are a good guide to adultsD. are very harmful to the young14. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. People have become used to crimes now.B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.C. People now like to read books with pictures.D. The adults are less violent than the young.15. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.A. children should keep away from TV programs should be improvedC. children’s books should have picturesD. TV has a deep influence on the youngPassage 2Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking.

"Does he smoke?""No, he's never touched a cigarette," the woman replied."That's good," the man continued. "I don't smoke either. Tobacco is very bad to one's health. And does your son drink wine?""Oh, no," the woman answered at once. "He's never drunk a drop of it.""Then I congratulate you, ma'am," the man said. "And does he ever come home late at night?""No, never," his neighbor answered. "He goes to bed immediately after dinner every night.""Well," the man said, "he's a wise young man. How old is he?""He's six months old today. But he will grow up to be a gentleman," the woman replied proudly.(1)、The man and the woman are talking about the woman's son.A：TB：F(2)、The woman thinks her son will be a gentleman.A：TB：F(3)、The conversation took place on a train.A：TB：F(4)、The word "disappointed" probably best describes the man's feeling at the end of the conversation. A：TB：F(5)、The woman is so proud of her son that she does not really understand what the man's questions mean.A：TB：F2、Mr. Young ran his own business and worked very hard. His wife was afraid that he would get sick if he continued like that, so she often tried to get him to take a vacation. At last she managed to persuade him to do so, and she hoped that he would be able to enjoy his vacation without any disturbance, so before they left, Mrs. Young went to see her husband's secretary. She said to her, "My husband needs a vacation very much, so whatever happens, please don't bother him with telegrams and letters about business problems while we are away. Just wait till we get back."After Mr. and Mrs. Young had been away about a week, Mr. Young received a letter from his secretary which said, "Something terrible happened to your business, but I'm not going to bother you with it while you are enjoying your vacation."(6)、Mr. Young was the owner of a private business.A：TB：F(7)、Mrs. Young worried about her husband's business.A：TB：F(8)、Mrs. Young was afraid that her husband's vacation might be spoilt.A：TB：F(9)、The secretary didn't explain in her letter what had happened to Mr.Young's business, because she didn't want to spoil Mr. Young's vacation.A：TB：F(10)、You can learn from the story that Mr. Young had a stupid secretary.A：TB：F3、By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others - they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an agewhere true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us - an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星), who are legendary, who somehow mange to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That's hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death - such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.(11)、The passage mainly deals with ______.A：life and deathB：heroes and heroinesC：heroes and iconsD：icons and celebrities(12)、Heroes and heroines are usually _________.A：courageousB：exemplaryC：self-sacrificingD：all of the above(13)、Which of the following statements is wrong? _________A：Poverty in America has been eased with the economic growth.B：Superstars are famous for being famous.C：One's look can contribute to being famous.D：Heroes and heroines can only emerge in war times.(14)、Beautiful young Diana Spencer found her genuine love________.A：when she was 19 B：when she became a princessC：just before her death D：after she gave birth to a prince(15)、What is more likely to set an icon's status? ________ A：Good looks.B：Tragic and early death.C：Personal attraction.D：The quality of one's story.三、词汇与语法1、Never get off the bus ______it has stopped.A：ifB：as soon asC：untilD：or2、Put it down, Richard.

At that time, zoos were places 1 people could go to see animals from many parts of the world.

She began studying medical reports in the library and found an article in a magazine about a well-known heart surgeon, Dr. Michael DeBakey, of Houston, Texas. He had saved the life of someone with the same disease. The article said his fees were very high; Aunt Edith couldn't possibly pay them. But could he tell her of someone whose fees she could pay?So Aunt Edith wrote to him. She simply listed her reasons for wanting to live: her three children, who would be on their own in three or four more years; her little-girl dream of traveling and seeing the world. There wasn't a word of self-pity－only warmth and humor and the joy of living. She mailed the letter, not really expecting an answer.A few days later, my doorbell rang.

And their charm comes from an apparent contradiction in the national character. They are extremely conservative in social relationships; within the family and when meeting friends and business acquaintances, their conduct is governed by strict social patterns. At the same time, they are one of the most intellectually progressive people in the world. They are always open to new ideas.All social occasions in Sweden are regulated by rules and traditions. And these traditions are expressed in a specific ritual (仪式) made up of formal bows, handshakes, and greetings. When a visitor enters a Swedish home, he is invariably received with a "Welcome"; when he leaves, his host will tell him "You will be welcome again". These charming phrases are an indestructible part of Swedish social life and they give it an old-world flavor of good manners.Equally attractive is the Swedish acceptance of modern technological equipment. A traveller never needs to search for a telephone in Sweden: telephone booths are placed at regular intervals along the main streets and highways. And in church, for example, long benches are fitted with hearing aids for worshippers who may be hard of hearing. Swedish homes are among the best equipped in the world and travellers in Sweden find their journeys made easy by the use of the most efficient modern devices.11. The contradiction of the Swedes can be found in __B__.A) their strictness in social activities and friendliness in entertaining guestsB) their conserved attitude towards social relationships and openness to initiative ideasC) their clearly set social patterns and enthusiasm about big partiesD) their specific ritual and concern about good manners12. "Invariably" in the second paragraph can be best replaced with __D_.A) "often"B) "usually"C) "sometimes"D) "always"13. It cannot be inferred from the passage that the Swedes are __A__.A) hard-workingB) politeC) considerateD) efficient14. According to the passage, the Swedish social ritual doesn’t include __D__.A) greetingsB) bowsC) handshakingD) embraces15. Which of the following statements is NOT true? CA) People can hear the priest more clearly with the hearing aids in the church.B) The Swedes' homes are among the best equipped ones in the world.C) Travelers will be most satisfied when travelling in Sweden.D) It's very convenient to make a call in booths in Sweden.三、词汇与语法1、A pilot should be responsible __C__ the safety of all the passengers on board.A：againstB：atC：forD：with2、The construction of the new bridge has been __D__ for two weeks because of the bad weather.

第二篇短文后有5个正、误判断题，请选择T或F.Passage OneIt has been reported that in colleges across the United States, the daytime serial drama known as the soap opera has suddenly become "in". Between the hours of 11 a.m. and 4:30 pm, college television lounges are filled with soap opera fans who can't wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters.Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they're a youth favorite. When school is out, high-school stude nts are in front of their TV sets. One young work ing woma n admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up watching her favorite serials. During the 1960's, it was un com mon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was very differe nt from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importanee.Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people want to be happy. It may seem strange that they should tur n to soap opera, which is known for show ing trouble in people's lives. But soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who, like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chanee to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems.6. What is soap opera?A : Plays based on scienee fiction stories.B : Plays based on non-fiction stories.C： The daytime serial dramas on TV.D ： Popular documentary films on TV.7． What can be the best title of the passage?A ： College student viewers.B ： Favorite TV serials.C： Soap opera fans.D ： College-age viewers.8．Which is NOT the reason why the soap opera has suddenly become "in" among American young people ?A ： Because the viewers want to be happy and to enjoy themselves.B ：Because the soap opera makes young people feel close to their people. C：Because the viewers can find themselves in the soap opera characters. D ： Because the young people have to bear the responsibilities for their troubles.9． What can we learn from the passage? _______A ： College students like soap operas more than any other social groups.B ： Young people of sixties liked soap operas more than people today.C： young viewers have turned themselves from the seriousness of sixties to enjoyment now.D ： The young as a whole are trying to look for happy love but in vain.10． What message does the author want to convey to us? ______A ： The people's favorites to drama works have been changed for a long time.B ： The people's favorites to drama works change along with the times.C： The people's favorites to drama works is changed by the soap opera.D ： The people's favorites have changed the drama works.Passage TwoMartin Luther King was a black minister, who became a great leader of the civil rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s.King was born on January 15, 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia. When he was young, he was strongly influenced by Thoreau and Indian leader Mahatma Gandhi's idea of non-violent resistance. Having received a Ph. D (Doctor of Philosophy) from Boston University, he became a political and religious 可编辑 word, 供参考版！leader of the non-violent civil relights movement in 1955. On August 28, 1963, he led over 250,000 America ns on a march in Wash ington D.C. to fight for the Civil Rights Law to guara ntee equality for all people, and delivered his best known speech "I Have a Dream" before the Lincoln Memorial. The "dream" is a dream of brotherly love and equality for the Black and White.

But put into a new 22 , we don’t know what clues to look for. This can be 23 —but it is always embarrassing. Nobody wants to feel “left out” or “clueless”. As I 24 China, I learn why teaching culture is harder than teaching language. Language has rules. Context doesn’t. Every word needs a context to give it meaning. If you don’t know the context, the word is nonsense. You have n o “clue” what it means. The “clue” is the 25 that leads you safely through 26 . Two of my student friends were arguing in my home before our Friday evening movie. “The countryside is not the city, so isn’t a town or village either. How can y ou say you’re from the country when I 27 your village?” one student asked the other. “If it’s not city it’s country,” the other insisted. Finally they asked me: “What does ‘country’ mean?” My 28 to answer starts: “Well, it depends…” To a city person, it’s true that anything not in the city is rural, “country”. To me, “country” means wild, natural, 29 , since I grew up near that. To a 19th-century writer like Hardy, “countryside” meant 30 . “Country” also means a nation geogr aphically. So both were partially right. It depends on what you mean. Context decides.II. Choosing the appropriate word from the four items. (10×1')31.However, at times this balance in nature is ____, resulting in a number of possibleunforeseen effects.A) troubled B) disturbed C) confused D) disgusted32.Spitting on the ground is not only ______ but also harmful to others’ health.A) blasting B) banging C) grabbing D) disgusting33.

When she was told that her cat was killed by the neighbor’s dog, the old lady_____ tears.A) reached for B) bolted out C) burst into D) turn on III.Reading comprehension (10×1')Direction: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each question. Passage 1On Thursday afternoon Mrs. Clarke, dressed for going out, took her handbag with her money and her key in it, pilled the door behind her to lock it and went to the over 60s Club. She always went there on Thursday. It was a nice outing for an old woman who lived alone.At six o’clock she came home, let herself in and at once smelt cigarette smoke. Cigarette smoke in her house? How? How? Had someone got in? She checked the back door and the windows. All were locked or fastened, as usual. There was no sign of forced entry. Over a cup of tea she wondered whether someone might have a key that fitted her front door-“a master key” perhaps. So she stayed at home the following Thursday. Nothing happened. Was anyone watching her movements? On the Thursday after that she went out at her usual time, dressed as usual, but she didn’t go the club. Instead she took a short cut home again, letting herself in through her garden and the back door. She settled down to wait.It was just after four o’clock when the front door bell rang. Mrs. Clarke was making a cup of tea at the time. The bell rang again, and then she heard the letter-box being pushed open. With the kettle of boiling water in her hand, she moved quietly towards the front door. A long piece of wire appeared through the letter-box, and then a hand. The wire turned and caught around the knob on the door-lock. Mrs. Clarke raised the kettle and poured the water over the hand. There was a shout outside, andthe skin seemed to drop off the fingers like a glove. The wire fell to the floor, the hand was pulled back, and Mrs. Clarke heard the sound of running feet.41.Mrs. Clarke looked forward to Thursday because .A. she said visitors on ThursdayB. she worked at a club on the dayC. she visited a club on ThursdayD. a special visitor came on Thursday42. If someone had made a forced entry, .A. he or she was still in the houseB. things would have been thrown aboutC. he or she would have needed a master keyD. Mrs. Clarke would have found a broken door or window43. On the third Thursday Mrs. Clarke went out .A.in an attempt to trick the thiefB.to the club but then changed her mindC.to see if the thief was hanging about outsideD.because she didn’t want to miss the club again44. The lock on the front door was one which_____.A. used a knob instead of a keyB. needed a piece of wire to open itC. couldn’t be opened without a keyD.could be opened from inside without a key45. The wire fell to the floor ?A.because Mrs. Clarke refused to open the doorB. because the man just wanted to get awayC.when the man’s glove dropped offD.because it was too hot to holdPassage 2I found out one time that doing a favor for someone could get you into a lot of trouble. I was in the eighth grade at the time, and we were having a final test. During the test, the girl sitting next to me whispered something, but I didn’t understand. So I leaned over her way and found out that she was trying to ask me if I had an extra pen. She showed me that hers was out of ink and would not write. I happened to have an extra one, so I took it out of my pocket and put it on her desk.Later, after the test papers had been turned in, the teacher asked me to stay in the room when all the other students were dismissed. As soon as we were alone she began to talk to me about what it meant to grow up; she talked about how important it was to stand on your own two feet and be responsible for your own acts. For a long time, she talked about honesty and emphasized the fact that when people do something dishonest, they are really cheating themselves. She made me promise that I would think seriously about all the things she had said, and then she told me I could leave. I walked out of the room wondering why she had chosen to talk to me about all those things.Later on, I found out that she thought I had cheated on the test. When she sawme lean over to talk to the girl next to me, it looked as if I was copying answers from th e girl’s test paper. I tried to explain about the pen, but all she could say was it seemed very strange to her that I hadn’t talked of anything about the pen the day she talked to me right after the test. Even if I tried to explain that I was just doing the girl a favor by letting her use my pen, I am sure she continued to believe that I had cheated on the test.46. The girl wanted to borrow a pen, because ____.A. she had not brought a pen with herB. she had lost her own on her way to schoolC. there was something wrong with her ownD. her own had been taken away by someone47.

The boy knew everything ____.A. the moment he was asked to stay behindB. when the teacher started talking about honestyC. only some time laterD. when he was walking out of the room50. The thing(s) emphasized in her talk was (were) ____.A. honestyB. sense of dutyC. seriousnessD. all of the aboveIV. Translation. (7×5')51. Whenever I feel unhappy,(我总是靠我父亲帮我鼓气).(count on)52.

Young men will never again goto war as they did in 1914. Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to the young. Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient. Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny things like the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.11. In the past, many young people ______.A. knew the effects of warB. went in for politicsC. liked to save the wounded in warsD. were willing to be soldiers12. Now with TV people can _____.A. discuss politics at an information centerB. show more interest in politicsC. make their own decisions on political affairsD. express their opinions freely13. The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.A. are not reliable on the wholeB. are useless to peopleC. are a good guide to adultsD. are very harmful to the young14. Which is NOT true according to the passageA. People have become used to crimes now.B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.C. People now like to read books with pictures.D. The adults are less violent than the young.15. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.A. children should keep away from TVprograms should be improvedC. children’s books should have picturesD. TV has a deep influence on the youngPassage 2Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking. The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry.For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is spe aking to . The “eye contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who don’t like each other. The len gth of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.16. According to the passage, nonverbal communication _____.A. is a method often used by people who cannot speakB. can tell something that words cannotC. can be used to talk with people who cannot bearD. is less used than words17. The South American _____.A. tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is speaking toB. usually stands close to the person he is talking toC. is often unfriendly when spoken toD. is often cold and distant when speaking18. Which of the following is NOT trueA. Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.B. The longer one looks at you, the more interest he has in you.C. There is more eye contact between people who like each other.D. Shorter eye contact shows more interest in what one is talking about.19. Too long a gaze _____.A. may upset people being looked atB. shows one’s great confidenceC. indicates one’s interest in the talkD. tells you how friendly one is20. Constant smiling without apparent reason _____.A. is a sign of one’s friendlinessB. is a sign of one’s unfriendlinessC. makes people feel happyD. makes people feel uncomfortablePassage 3My husband had just bought a new washing machine for me. I decided to use it and I washed a lot of things.Everything worked well, but I found one of my husband's socks missing. I looked everywhere for it, but I couldn't find it anywhere.The next morning, I got ready for school as usual. When the bell rang, the students came in.
